Hawaii residents want pesticide alert!!

Also I said, "lawsuits winning cases"
Apologies. Should be lawsuits about to win cases.

[PaulW]

From your link:
"Four hundred lawsuits are pending against Monsanto Co."

Do you know the difference between "pending" and "winning"? It's big.

"Should be lawsuits about to win cases."

As a psychic, you should know what I think of that statement.

In a 2015 review, the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), the specialized cancer agency of the World Health Organization (WHO), has labelled glyphosate (Round Up) and two insecticides (malathion and diazinon) as probably carcinogenic to humans.

Here's the quick Monogram (2 page summary)

As for giving notice of spraying in Hawaii, improved tracking of usage and exposure is necessary to assessing what effects, if any, there may be to workers and their communities. What again is the argument against providing information and gathering data for people to make decisions with?

This is all very recent and about to really blow up soon.

From cbsnews. Maybe still an unreliable site to some individuals? I don't know?

"the herbicide came under increasing scrutiny after the International Agency for Research on Cancer, based in Lyon, France — part of the World Health Organization — classified it as a "probable human carcinogen" in 2015. A flurry of lawsuits against Monsanto in federal and states courts followed, and California added glyphosate to its list of chemicals known to cause cancer."

We've been through all this before. You know what else they list as "probable human carcinogen"? Red meat and hot drinks.

Yep, as there is clear evidence for both. Good thing you can choose your exposure for these []

[ElysianWort]

Yeah except glycogen phosphate isn't anything like meat and hot drinks.

Also wanted to note: When I started this link I looked and did not see RainyJim's thread which is just about the same.

Only when I logged back on hours ago it showed.
Anyway I don't have much more to say on the topic. Said it all. Toodloo

"Yeah except glycogen phosphate isn't anything like meat and hot drinks."

It is very much like them in relation to cancer and people.
Part of the definition of that group is "There is limited evidence of carcenogenicity in humans".

Where are all these winning lawsuits you mentioned? Always the same response when I ask this question.
There's a good reason these lawsuits end up losing. There is no evidence.
