but probably more toxic than glyphosphate. https://geneticliteracyproject.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/toxicity-table4.png https://geneticliteracyproject.org/

  And more detrimental to soil life (though maybe that's exactly the point here)

    i only use the soap + vinegar + salt on the driveway, and just the soap + vinegar on the "drought friendly" gravel backyard

  I don't see acetic acid on your list, and as someone mentioned above, i'll take vinegar (salad dressing mainly) and take salt everyday, you can go drink the roundup.

  interesting. that chart describes caffeine as more toxic than glyphosate.
  • 7sigma 9y ago
    caffeine is about thirty times more toxic than glyphosate. According to wikipedia: "The LD50 of caffeine in humans is dependent on individual sensitivity, but is estimated to be 150 to 200 milligrams per kilogram of body mass (75–100 cups of coffee for a 70 kilogram adult)" For glyphosate: "The acute oral LD50 in the rat is 5,600 mg/kg. Other oral LD50 values for glyphosate are 1,538 to greater than 10,000 mg/kg for mice, rabbits mg/kg, and goats" http://pmep.cce.cornell.edu/profiles/extoxnet/dienochlor-glyphosate/glyphosate-ext.html http://pmep.cce.cornell.edu/profiles/extoxnet/dienochlor-gly...

      that's also really interesting. here's what i don't get: how should i weigh the risks of acute toxicity against the risks of carcinogenicity? i take in caffeine every day. glyphosate, only rarely, and in truly minute quantities. i haven't yet ingested enough of either to die immediately. but have i ingested enough of either one to get cancer? is one a more powerful carcinogen than the other, taken in the quantities i experience? etc
