Like a bad Mad-Libs episode, NGOs and attorneys raid deep pockets of companies that produce a product that is safe-- yet trace amounts of chemistries are claimed to be a risk, despite regulatory guidance that says otherwise. Game on. Maybe things will change when there's no food.
Billions in settlements, yet science says glyphosate, Roundup's key ingredient, doesn't cause cancer at recommended levels. A major review supports the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s stance, no cancer warning needed. Truth In Science https://t.co/CjpLdGSWcB
Trying to make sense of US litigation is very perplexing and yet most of the anti-glyphosate comments in the UK reference huge court settlements in the US that seem to ignore the global scientific consensus. It is almost like there is some sort of financial scam going on
Uhm… you are making stuff up again! glyphosate degrades uber quickly in the environment. And by the consensus of 20 independent global agencies poses no serious health threats from micro-residues in our food. No chronic contamination there. You are probably confusing it with natural/organic copper sulfate, which kills beneficial insects, destroys the soil and can cause cancer in humans—a fav of anti biotech agro-ecologists -. https://t.co/VXQ1WnZ0Y4
Ninth Circuit rules Prop 65 glyphosate warnings are unconstitutional, noting no consensus on cancer risk and contrasting with IARC. | Viewpoint: Is California violating the free speech right of farmers in demanding a safety warning label on glyphosate? https://t.co/xJibiznu5b

This is really scary and has been bothering us for some time. There is so much misinformation out there, that even AI struggles to see through it!
Once again Kevin (@kevinfolta) highlights the issue better than we can - Thank You

"With almost no oversight, transparency, or regulation, financing tort cases is almost a no-lose proposition. Big wins...are referred to in the industry as “nuclear verdicts”... [as] a “contrived mass tort generation machine”. Fake studies “manufactured for the litigation” and marketing tie-ins with partner organizations such as environmental groups fuel litigation..."

If this is true, farmers can enjoy 15 years of more sustainable farming.
With certainty on glyphosate, more can invest in equipment for no-till farming, use more complex cover crop mixes and better protect their soil.
A major win for ag, soil, consumers...

This announcement by the EU Commission, represents an absolute rejection of the lies and propaganda spread by @EuropePAN. It's fantastic to witness science refute the false information spread by the eNGO. Great news indeed! https://t.co/yyeGj1kXoZ
Why do folks fear one “probable carcinogen” while ignoring another?
Its the hypocrisy of the failed @IARCWHO classification system. My latest. #aspartame#glyphosate@GeneticLiteracy https://t.co/nitho8X9ua
Absolutely brilliant! @kevinfolta
"The case of methyl eugenol is a stellar opportunity to underscore the hypocrisy in IARC-induced chemophobia."
Concerned about aspartame? Beware of this other “probable carcinogen” on your plate

Glyphosate will be re-authorized for 15 years as safe by the European Commission, according to leaked documents https://t.co/ngNZrQ1DIM via @GeneticLiteracy
