Scientists call for urgent action on glyphosate, citing strong links to cancer
US and European regulators should take urgent action to more tightly regulate glyphosate, the world’s most widely used weed killer, in light of strong scientific evidence that the pesticide can cause cancer and other health problems, a group of international scientists said on Friday.
#Glyphosate could fuel a rise in superbugs—one of the top threats to global health and development. Scientists warn that waterways could act as a bridge, allowing resistant bacteria to move in both directions between the environment and health centres.

A widely used agricultural weedkiller could be unintentionally helping antibiotic-resistant bacteria thrive.
Secrecy in EU pesticide approvals ruled unlawful — a landmark win for transparency and nature. “For too long, approvals of toxic chemicals have been shielded from scrutiny.” A judgment on the lawfulness of renewing the authorisation of
#glyphosate is still pending.

Lawyers have hailed a major legal breakthrough for transparency and environmental protection, as the EU’s top court ruled today that the lack of transparency surrounding pesticide authorisations under the so-called comitology procedure is unlawful.
Weedkiller ‘driving evolution of superbugs.’ Scientists have found that
#glyphosate — the world’s most commonly used herbicide — may be driving the emergence of dangerous superbugs capable of resisting antibiotics, according to research.

Counties with heaviest pesticide use see higher late-stage lymphoma rates • Missouri Independent
Seventy-one percent of counties that spray the most glyphosate have late-stage non-Hodgkin lymphoma incidence rates above the national average.
Bayer is the sole US supplier of the white phosphorus involved in these war crimes. And Trump is protecting Bayer and boosting its white phosphorus production, along with its production of
#glyphosate, which incidentally Israel is also using as a weapon of war. More on this:

Glyphosate found in South African baby cereal; watchdog group calls for ban
A recent report finds concentrations of glyphosate in wheat and maize that exceeded default maximum residue limits in South Africa.
> “Finding glyphosate in baby cereal was very disturbing. Babies are the most vulnerable. It shouldn’t be there. We know that glyphosate is an endocrine disruptor, so if young babies are being fed this every day, that is highly problematic. It can affect their physical health and development,”

Analysis find "hot spots" for glyphosate and cancer in Iowa and other Midwest states
A new analysis links high use of the weed killer glyphosate to elevated rates of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), particularly in the Upper Midwest, reinforcing years of research linking cancer to the weed killer made popular by Monsanto.
