C0ij CI_Ecck3C1 2 Roundup 79,15 AUG - 6 P11 2: 41 What if I told you that a company with a historic, consistent pattern of manufacturing toxic chemicals, who also has a consistent disregard for human, animal and environmental health and has been proven to manipulate scientific research and discredit scientists who find problems with their products, who has been found guilty of bribery to government officials in Indonesia, was claiming to offer the world healthy, sustainable, safe, agricultural products that are produced in laboratories with no government oversight or long term tests to prove their claims:.. Would you want to help them test the long term effects on Humans and nature? The real facts about Roundup and the company that produces it (Monsanto) are filled with lies and a very insidious propaganda marketing program to produce profit and convince the general public that these toxic chemicals are safe. The propaganda that Roundup is safe to use for humans has been cleverly promoted and they have used their power and money to hire scientist to do studies that falsely "prove" Roundup to be safe for humans. They also promoted DDT and Agent orange as safe until these chemicals where unequivocally proven to be highly toxic to humans, causing innumerous birth defects, illness and long term genetic problems. Yet many scientists who have studied Roundup not funded by the chemical companies have found that the chemical "so called" inert ingredients can kill human cells, particularly embryonic, placental and umbilical cord cells. The inert ingredients amplified the toxic effect on human cells—even at concentrations much more diluted than those used on farms and lawns.. The real truth about this toxic compound is much more complex than most can understand, since few of us here are chemists and chemical companies do not have to label all the chemicals in their products due to trade secret laws. The United States Environmental Protection Agency has found falsifying test results at research laboratories hired by Monsanto to study glyphosate. France's highest court ruled in 2009 that Monsanto had lied about the safety of Roundup. Glyphosate, Roundup's main ingredient, is classed by the European Union as "dangerous for the environment" and "toxic for aquatic -organisms". Should we really be spraying this on our public property and exposing everyone to this poison chemical. David H. Monroe, an Industrial and Environmental Toxicologist, stated that the chemical polyoxyethylene alkylamine in RoundUp are contaminated with 1+ dioxane. This compound is carcinogenic, and is known to damage the liver, kidney, brain and lungs. A recent study by eminent oncologists Dr. Lennart Hardell and Dr. Mikael Eriksson of Sweden, has revealed clear links between glyphosate and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, a form of cancer. Comm. No. Ref. To: Q !AL Ref. Dote AUG 2115 It has been proven that Roundup is an'Endocrine disruptor. A 2009 in vitro experiment with glyphosate formulations on human liver cells has observed DNA damages at sub -agricultural doses, where a Roundup formulation showed to be the most detrimental formulation. The effects were more dependent on the formulation than on the glyphosate concentration. Roundup and most all chemical toxics that kill life forms are poisons that will do harm to you and your children at a genetic level. We as a species must understand the underlying long term harmful effects from these toxic compounds and stop using them on our environment. We should not be forced to breathe and be exposed to these chemicals in public places where often times we don't even know we are being exposed to it. A Quote from Adolf Hitler's philosophy "The most brilliant propagandist technique will yield no success unless one fundamental principle is borne in mind constantly and with unflagging attention. It must confine itself to a few points and repeat them over and over." If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it.
