(From EWG) BREAKING NEWS: EPA Withdraws Flawed Glyphosate Decision!

popularrationalism.substack.com

This just in from EWG:

In 2020 the EPA concluded that glyphosate is "safe" and "not likely" to cause cancer. But now the EPA has been forced to review their flawed assessment, because a federal judge found the agency ignored human health studies, expert advice and the agency's guidelines for determining cancer risk!

Glyphosate is the key ingredient in Bayer-Monsanto's Roundup, the most widely used pesticide in the U.S. The World Health Organization and California state scientists agree glyphosate is linked to cancer.

For decades, Monsanto and now Bayer have waged a ruthless misinformation campaign to cover up any science linking glyphosate to cancer. They've even come after EWG, calling our pesticide work "propaganda."

Thank you for reading Popular Rationalism. This post is public so feel free to share it.

EWG won't be silenced. Consumers need to know the truth about glyphosate's health risk, and EWG will never stopping fighting to protect you from toxic pesticides like glyphosate. But we can't do it alone.

We need 5,484 of our top supporters to weigh in before 11:59 p.m. to help EWG urge the EPA to finally protect our health from cancer-linked glyphosate!

Should Big Ag keep spraying cancer-linked glyphosate?

You know, whoever designed that survey was brilliant. Of course you feel strongly about EWG’s work if you are going to take the time to fill out the (short) survey, and a $10 is such a small ask. I gave $10 and I suspect lots of others will too. It adds up! Thanks for making this so easy.
