Billy: National Pesticide Information Center did the study.



a short term study with rats isn't going to

reveal long term effects. some effects may not

appear for more years than you'll be alive.

who cleans it up if a mistake is made? all

those acres you spray stuff on, what happens

if it is shown to be contaminated and the

food you grow is no longer acceptable for

animal or human consumption?



do you think those companies that sell you

that stuff are going to have deep enough

pockets to make things right? to decontaminate

the soil? to pay for whatever healthcare you

and/or your decendants might need as a result?



what about people you might be poisoning

downwind? groundwater? or people who buy

your food? an insurance company can only

cover so much before they go under.





here is an example of what is actually going on:

a clear sign that poisons do not work

in a sustainable manner. this process has

been demonstrated over and over again in

many ways yet here we have yet another

poison and plants being modified so that

such poisons can be used to spray fields.



i'm really glad i'll have more poison

to breath in coming from the fields around

me, going into the water, etc.

I doubt that you and Billy will ever believe ANYTHING that ANY
Authority publishes.

The NPIC has issued some pretty good investigative studies on
a plethora of pesticides and I would not hesitate in trusting
their literature as a guide for usage.

They also know how to use "Capital Letters" when they begin
sentences.

Never read

cy#Controversies did you?

The EPA has also had some really crummy advice, like telling first
responders that the air around the World Trade Center was safe to
breath, which sent them, and residents back into a toxic environment.

"According to the report: a September 18 EPA statement saying that the
air was "safe"[1] was made without sufficient reliable data available;
the White House Council on Environmental Quality influenced the EPA to
make reassuring comments to the public; and on September 12 the EPA
Administrator issued a memo saying that all statements to the media must
be cleared by the National Security Council.

Numerous key differences between the draft versions and final versions
of EPA statements were found. A recommendation that homes and businesses
near ground zero be cleaned by professionals was replaced by a request
that citizens follow orders from NYC officials. Another statement that
showed concerns about sensitive populations was deleted altogether.
Language used to describe excessive amounts of asbestos in the area was
altered drastically to minimize attention to the dangers it posed.[2]"

Because the EPA writes a "puff piece" on the EPA, you believe them?


Glyphosate, and GMOs "MAY" be perfectly safe, but the reason that they
were rushed to market without feeding studies is MONEY. We are the
Guinea pigs.
