I find it interesting that you quote an article about how dangerous ROUND UP is and you wrote the article. I find no facts in this article that would make me change my mind. Now If it came from TEXAS A&M, or a research center then I might buy it, but I can’t accept your own premise as fact. In fact I disagree with much of the article. I have nothing to do with Monsanto, Round up etc. But I get very upset when things are presented as facts and there are no facts to back them up. This is totally bogus research. Shame on all of you. There is enough out there that is really harmful, at least get your facts straight.

I find your comments interesting in that you clearly didn’t read the article. The article clearly identifies the author of this information (not me) and also identifies the individual who compiled the information and the organization they work for (again, not me).
Moreover, if you actually did a little independent research of your own you’d find FAR MORE troubling information regarding Round-up and Monsanto than what you’ll find in this article. Instead of immediately dismissing this information, why not investigate it a bit further yourself to verify it’s integrity.
It’s great that you’re looking for additional corroboration from a large university, but, have you ever considered who is supplying a great deal of the funding or these agricultural programs – primarily chemical companies pushing their fertilizer and weed/pest control chemicals. Doesn’t exactly leave these Universities in an UNbiased position to report ANYTHING about these substances.
You’re more than welcome to continue to use Round-up. I don’t have the right to stop you (although your neighbors might). That being said, just because you like the convenience of the product, that doesn’t give you any credible position from which to refute or corroborate the information within this article.
given the volume of research and scientific articles demonstrating the severe toxicity of roundup, it is hard to underestand how anyone could doubt this fact, It is simply in the literature, Only monsaanto claims it is nearly nontoxic, Monsanto has been repeatedly fined for false and misleading claims. It is deadly toxic.
I have 3 horses that unwittingly grazed on treated grass. One died the other two have damaged their livers and kidneys and have chronic inflammation in all 4 legs. They are now useless and will likely have to be euthanized. Wake up do the leg work read the literature, then give an opinion.
