Recently in Sacramento, California the public, science, medical and research communities faced off against the infinite industry. Kenneth P. Stoller MD, writes:
"Monsanto was at the public hearing and insisted glyphosate doesn’t cause cancer at all. And they are suing California for finding it does."
At the public Sacramento hearing the Monsanto members present, testifying on the safe limit and exposure of the company's cancer-causing glyphosate herbicide, stated that the safe level was "infinite." The truth is, the real science and evidence has overtaken Monsanto's simple marketing propaganda. Yet like any common liar, once invested deep into a lie, there can be no turning back.
When paradigms shift, tyrants fall or corporations lose their market share it is often not from some spectacular event but by a single, humanizing display. The public witnessed such an event in 2015 during the interview of high-profile GMO advocate Patrick Moore. The viral video exploded in popularity giving yet another sign, along with recoiling public dollars, that glyphosate is not wanted. Moore does a near perfect job in less than two minutes to show the world the infinite, hypocritical face of the biotech/GMO industry stripped of all spin, lies, and deception.
The fall of the big tobacco companies, which operated in strikingly identical ways as the biotech/GMO industry today, was crushed in seconds by one, infinite televised statement in 1994, “I believe nicotine is not addictive.” This can now be compared to Moore’s 2015 statement of “I do not believe that glyphosate (in Argentina) is causing increases in cancer.” and Monsanto's recent Prop 65 testimony stating the safe level for glyphosate is "infinite." For whatever reason, Moore foolishly continues to boast about glyphosate’s (2B carcinogen) harmless nature by offering to drink some. “I’d be happy to actually” was Moore’s reply to French investigative journalist and film maker Paul Moreira’s offer to pour him a glass. It is at this stage of the interview that Moore’s credibility and integrity went down the drain fast along with what little was left of biotech/GMO public trust, faith and confidence.
There has never been a better time for citizen journalists and independent thinkers to press this debate. Corporate media outlets once sympathetic to agrochemical propaganda are being forced to report on the internal cover up of harm and deep collusion with US regulators regarding glyphosate now uncovered in court documents. At the time of this writing, there are 90 cases consolidated in multidistrict litigation in San Francisco against Monsanto claiming cancer from their Round up glyphosate product. There are also 1,100 more plaintiffs in litigation in individual state courts throughout the US.
The deadline for OEHHA comment is June 21 concerning California's Prop 65 which will determine the safe level's of glyphosate. From the published work of Stephanie Seneff, Anthony Samsel and others, the only safe level of glyphosate appears to be zero.
