Atrazine, an endocrine-disrupting herbicide banned in Europe, is widely used in the U.S.

Atrazine has been banned in Europe since 2004, but it is the second-most widely used weed killer in the United States. A significant body of research suggests it is an endocrine disruptor. It is also linked to various cancers, premature birth and more.

The Agsector denies it's banned in Europe, stating that the countries restricting its use rather do this due to atrazine concentration in water, for instance.
