Doncha just love fear mongering?



Read this again:

"There were no effects on fertility or
reproductive parameters in two multigeneration reproduction studies with
glyphosate. Likewise there were no adverse effects in reproductive
tissues from animals treated with glyphosate, AMPA, or POEA in chronic
and/or subchronic studies."

Would you like to know why this is nonsense? You'd have to have been reading
things like this since the mid-1970s to understand. Interested?




Well, that is a meaningless response. I use such chemicals as rarely as
possible, but nonetheless, I have little confidence in greenpeace as an
arbiter of safety for garden chemicals. Were it up to them, we would
all be grouching around in the mud living off earthworms. Really. An I
used to give them money.


Try explaining yourself, not merely casting doubt on [purported]
research. I personally would like to know if there is a real reason not
ot buy roundup, or just a greenpeace reason
