With America now designated as “The Home of Abortion”, I don’t know why anyone would be worried about infertility.

I think spraying it on a few cracks in the driveway is one thing, and spraying it over millions of acres and then ingesting the produce is something else again.

It’s often used with genetically selected (not engineered) crops. The special crops are selected for their immunity to the herbicide.

While it becomes much easier to grow crops, I’m sure more traces of the chemicals will show up in our food.

The effects of the chemicals are debatable but I prefer 100% natural local farm grown. You can’t go wrong with natural and the flavor is definitely not debatable.

Poison is bad for people?
Spraying it on food causes to end up inside us?
Get out.

I use Round Up in my garden and I have noticed that I have not had any dandelions or other weeds in my hair recently. Maybe I am building up some toxicity.

Entropy is a “journal” that will publish just about anything that the author is willing to pay to print.

There was an interesting case recently w/ Monsanto and their “Roundup Ready” Soybean seed which is genetically modified so that Roundup doesn’t kill the plant. A farmer was sued by Monsanto because he saved seed from a crop to plant the next season and the second generation seed was also Roundup Ready.

Little creepy to think we are messing with natures design and eating it. IMO, we don’t even really no what causes High Cholesterol and we confidently say things are safe to eat.

if you ask why 2015 you will find that

The last Monsanto-owned patent for Roundup Ready soybeans will expire in 2014, and the last applicable third-party patent will expire in early 2015. That means independent seed companies will no longer owe trait royalty payment to Monsanto beginning in 2015. Farmers will have access to a generic trait offering beginning in the 2015 planting season.

Glysophate is a non-selective herbicide: it kills everything it touches, so if you used it on your “lawns, gardens, and golf courses” it would KILL your lawns, you gardens and your golf courses.

Once again, we see the level of ignorance that passes as “journalism” in the Statist Media.

I wonder how much ELSE is incorrect in this article?

Same thing was said by liberals that DDT and Deet both were bad. We know better today.
