I read the article. An odd thing is that Dr. Chalker-Scott refers to

Roundup as a pesticide instead of an herbicide. This is a common lay-person
mistake, but an academic should know better. Certainly when written as a
professional paper.

With all due respect, it IS a pesticide. Calling it a pesticide is not
incorrect for either professional or lay people. The specific type of pesticide
it is, is a herbicide. Still, it's a pesticide and can be called such.
