Monsanto bombshell
SumOfUs
A federal judge in the United States recently ordered Monsanto to release 250 pages of internal documents, and what they revealed is practically criminal: Monsanto has known for 17 years that glyphosate, the main ingredient in its pesticide Roundup, could cause cancer.
And they launched a massive coverup to make sure we never found out.
The released documents -- dubbed the "Monsanto papers" -- show the agricultural giant has been manipulating research, colluding with a senior government official at the US Environmental Protection Agency, and providing bogus articles to government agencies -- all to refute the fact that glyphosate is a carcinogen.
Monsanto has proven itself completely untrustworthy and an ongoing risk to public health. It should never be allowed to merge with Bayer -- which would only make both companies more powerful and give them control over our food supply from seed to plate.
Will you chip in to stop the Monsanto-Bayer mega merger?
