A decade ago, we were told we were killing the bees. And if the bees go extinct, we all go extinct. How did that Armageddon fear campaign work out? It turned out it was a couple cold winters that weakened the colonies. But NGOs were able to ban an important class of insecticides.

Glyphosate isn’t controversial because it’s understudied. It’s controversial because the evidence is ignored. Fact 1. This chemical is exhaustively studied: •40+ years of data. •Thousands of studies. •Reviewed repeatedly across continents. Fact 2. Global regulators agree:

2026 may determine the future of glyphosate - but not because of new science. The real question is legal: If the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency approves a pesticide label based on decades of evidence, can state juries still impose liability for not adding a cancer warning?

One thing I keep noticing in public debates about vaccines and glyphosate is how familiar the arguments feel. Not because the technologies are similar - they aren’t. But because the reasoning patterns are. Again and again, the same steps appear. First, correlation is treated

You’re going to be seeing scary posts about pesticides detected at XX ppb in food. Let’s slow this down. Detection is not danger. ppb tells you what can be measured, not what can harm you. ppb = parts per billion. That’s like: • 1 second in 32 years • 1 drop of water in an

The claim that glyphosate is “poison” is one of the most successful disinformation campaigns of our time. Decades of data. Hundreds of regulatory reviews. No credible cancer signal at real-world exposure. One of the most studied chemicals in human history.

8/9: Since #glyphosate is the tort lawyer-environmental activist coalition’s most lucrative whipping boy, it’s no surprise that it’s front and center among MAHA acolytes, despite over 15 regulatory bodies deeming it safe at trace dietary levels.

Sama Hoole While I agree with many of your posts on livestock, you’re repeating wildly misleading claims about glyphosate. Let’s start with the boring stuff - keep reading for the more interesting facts👇🏽 1) Glyphosate was not patented as a descaling agent. If you have a look at the

Every regulatory agency that has evaluated glyphosate has concluded that it is safe if used according to label specifications and does not increase cancer risk.

Cancer should not be used as a political weapon. Over the past decade, glyphosate has been turned into a symbol — of industrial agriculture, of multinational corporations, of environmental anxiety. But somewhere along the way, nuance disappeared. Here’s what gets lost in the
