  1. You are forgetting about Dow Chemical's weed killers that contain the same chemical and are spread around the sides of roads and utility lines with their contracts for various herbicides all across the USA that make their way into ground water, run off and the like.

  2. In addition to cancer, through disrupting the GI tract microbiome, ROundup and hard to digest lectin Cry1 GMO Bt proteins in transgene stacked corn, soy, and rapeseed crops are directly contributing to the increase in autism. In addition, the use of ROundup as a harvest desiccant for oats, wheat, barley, rye, and rice is directly exposing the population to the chemical glyphosate.

  3. If it's scientifically proven to cause cancer. BAN IT IMMEDIATELY. There will be an immediate rush in the research community to find something that works as an alternative weed killer as the motivation is $66,000,000,000. The idea that we'll be worse off so we can't ban it is a "DIPSHIT" argument because they're the one making that money.

  4. 1000 farmers were diagnosed with cancer out of the hundreds of thousands of farmers since the invention and use of Glyphosate is well under the national average. Maybe Glyphosate prevents cancer.

  5. IARC is a joke of an organisation they pretty much cherry picked a bunch of bad studies to come to the conclusion that glyphosate is probably a cancerogenic. The guy heavily inholved in the classification Christopher Portier, went directly two a lawfirm representing cancer clients and have reportedly made hundreds of thousands from them. It's all about getting money from a rich company. And yes Monsanto have done bad many bad things but there is no science that shows a increase in risk of cancer.

  6. This has been happening for decades! Now there’s all sorts of autoimmune diseases , autism etc etc! Thanks to Monsanto . Grow your own vegies!

  7. There are poisons in your house every day. Without them life would be very difficult. You have to be smart enough to handle them carefully. Look stupid people, if you want to feed the world and have cheap food prices for the average American there will always be a risk. What the hell do you think. People are stupid. Maybe we can go to all being subsistence farmers. Chemicals produce food. You ain't gonna live forever dummy.

  8. I dont think so.
    Reading several medical articles on non hodgkins lymphoma says so.
    To get cancer, specifically Non hodgkins lymphoma you must have an autoimmune disease.
    Now I am not saying these people didnt use round up.
    I am saying the next common factor is that all these people have an autoimmune disease.
    They either did know or did not know that they have a autoimmune disease because having an autoimmune is the main leading cause of non hodgkins lymphoma.

  9. Ha! it would be a step back in crop production if Roundup wasn't used so there would be less Profit but 30 years later you get cancer so is that a step back. Everyone needs to get with the greed program. MONEY is a cancer off man

  10. Understand this all money belongs to the people we pay for everything because money is our labor and yet cocksuckers hide their face behind a CORPORATE MASK and make all the decisions for us. FUCK THAT its time to rip the mask if these lowlife scumbags and hold them personally accountable for their actions finacially and criminally and there will never be another CORPORATE poison forced on anybody, our Republic will once again shine like a beacon and all the wars and terrorism will stop.
