Care to elaborate? I'm following that from a distance and my impression was, that until now? Glyphosate was considered safe i.e. German BfR (risk assessment institute) said it there no big risks in the last EU talks... a lot of sceptics are also saying this.
So - basically this proves that these were wrong (or misled) and exposure to Glyphosat causes cancer?
- astazangasta 8y agoNote the distinction between "glyphosate" and "glyphosate-based herbicide". The former was well studied and presumed safe. My understanding is it is the actual formulations that are being claimed as unsafe now. I.e., if you ship your safe herbicide in an unsafe slurry you get cancer.
- nisa 8y agoInteresting. In the end in reality everyone is using some kind of "glyphosate-based herbicide" through and the whole discussion is about an chemical in isolation. Talk about misleading the public discourse :/ I've read that in practice the ingredients of "glyphosate-based herbicide" are often treated as trade-secrets and are not public, does anyone here have more information?
