This article doesn't seem to care all that much about accuracy. They just care about being dramatic.
For example: "glyphosate ... has been shown to be lethal to bees as well as cause cancer in humans"
Neither clause is true.
I don't feel like doing a line by line of the rest, but this is a garbage article.

It _was_ considered safe, new data and better science has changed that stance. The article isn't garbage.
- eitland 7y agoSupporting this. I grew up with this stuff and while the ones I know would always use protective gear it was considered safe and the protection was used just to be really sure it seemed. Today the situation is a lot more nuanced. ...and as I write this I think I could feel the smell of roundup or another herbicide, so yeah I've been exposed it :-/
