Shortlist of those other herbicides?
- epgui 4y agoI personally don't know of any that we know is better than glyphosate, so literally any herbicide. I admit that there very well could be better options that I don't know about (especially if there are new ones that emerged in the last 10-20 years), but I think it's no exaggeration to say that almost anything else is worse.
- deelowe 4y agoThey’re asking for a list of the more concerning ones.
- epgui 4y agoI understand that. I responded with "essentially the list of all other herbicides". I don't know where you could find a complete list, but let me google that for you... this might be a place to start: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Herbicides https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Herbicides
- deelowe 4y agoThey said “short list” not all.
- appletrotter 4y agoThey now have instructions that would allow them to assemble their short list. Just pick a couple that look interesting from the larger one.
- deelowe 4y agoSo your claim is that there are much worse things people should focus on but you refuse to point out which these are? This whole discussion seems extremely hyperbolic…
- epgui 4y agoIt sounds to me like you just don't want to believe it could be true that nearly any other thing could be worst. Other commenters have provided good short lists. Do you want me to repeat them?
- colechristensen 4y ago* Atrazine * 2,4-D * Dicamba * Trifluralin * Pendimethylin Go find a herbicide that doesn’t have a list of health concerns and environmental effects… which anybody uses.
- chemeng 4y agoAtrazine, cyanazine, trifluralin come to mind
