The levels (of glyphosate that the) French researchers found in sperm were four times higher than in the men’s blood
Eating organic produce did not have a clear impact on levels.
Remember kids, the market does not aim to produce food but profit. If it can get you to pay for eating sawdust or forever chemicals it will and it has.
Meh, this is just the free market in action. Now after decades of “collateral damage,” the market can correct itself. People will stop using the offending brand(s) because everyone needs to be an expert on literally everything or else they too can become collateral damage while the market “corrects.” It’s their own fault really.
And in this case, customers will stop using companies and services that use RoundUp, because again, they need to know everything including what chemicals that the contractor their town hired uses in the public park. And then lobby them to switch to a (likely more expensive) alternative.
Come on, that’s just capitalism, guys smh
Don’t forget people use a lot of Roundup for lawns and weed control too. Few homeowners wear respirators when using the stuff and pets track it back into homes. Also glyphosate remains in the soil for years too.
The article links this to global fertility rates dropping? So people aren’t marrying later and using birth control, and surveys suggesting fewer people want to have children aren’t a more important part of that mix?
I get that Organic is not an end all solution but I swear not enough people realize that eating produce that was grown in roundup ready acid probably isn’t a valid solution either.
It’s kind of annoying that there’s no easy way to tell how something was grown because it could range anything from barely any added targeted weed killer to air dropped agent orange (/s) lol.
Lots of non organic farms can be perfectly healthy if they opt to control weeds with a variety of methods instead of letting
MonsantoBayer nuke the soil.
