EU Commission Says None of Your Business on Glyphosate Risk AssessmentBy Heather Callaghan Unlike propagandists acting as scientism skeptics, who pretend its safe to drink glyphosate (the active ingredient in Monsantos Roundup herbicide) many other studies and observations prove that human exposure is hazardous. Sometimes its finding out that glyphosate can lead to breast cancer in parts per trillion, that it hijacks hormones and is found in breast milk and in rain samples. Sometimes its a farmer waking up to discover that his piglets are deformed and dying so he sends them off to a lab. Sometimes you find out that the so-called experts who tell us to trust science as they pretend to drink glyphosate are actually getting funds from Monsanto. Here, we actually have independent researchers ready to face the results of the assessment, come what may, and the Commission basically says, you cant look at that. Even though parts of Europe are known for blocking GMO crops, restricting pesticides and labeling or restricting GMO food products, Monsanto et al. have been orbiting the EU strategically finding openings. Whether its by funding research projects to help the bees, pretending to help the bees, or better yet, getting super cozy with the commish. Sustainable Pulse reported: In a letter to Testbiotech dated 10 August 2015, the Commission says that the documents made available to the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) by the German government are protected in their entirety as confidential. The EU Commission can see no overriding public interest that would justify access. There is, however, clearly public interest in the matter since the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) of the World health Organisation (WHO) has already declared that glyphosate is probably carcinogenic to humans. However, the German Federal Institute for Risk Assessment (BfR), is claiming there would be no risk to human health. The letter from the Commission continues to say, disclosure of these documents at this stage of the process will be premature and would seriously undermine EFSAs ongoing decision-making process. Heres the kicker: it appears Monsanto et al. have already had access to the results. Sustainable Pulse noted they reviewed an advanced draft of the report, dated January 2015. Soon afterward, industry quickly published a scientific paper claiming that glyphosate would not be carcinogenic. This was then promptly picked up by the German authority for the final version of its report. Christoph Then of Testbiotech couldnt help but notice the hypocrisy of allowing industry access but barring independent experts saying that it would underminedecision making. He says: Glyphosate is present in many food products, it is the most widely used herbicide in the world. If it is carcinogenic it could impact consumers health substantially. Therefore, from the perspective of public interest, there is no doubt that transparency in risk assessment must be given a high priority. The EU Commission and the EU Member States are failing to comply with a 2013 court case that demands public transparency for results like this glyphosate risk assessment. If this werent so serious a matter, it might be funny in a maddening sort of way. But there is nothing bordering on levity when it comes to the revolving door of governments and megacorps who control most of the food supply and dont actually want to feed the world, or better our health, or help farmers or the dying bees.

Recent posts byHeather Callaghan Rightfully outraged on GMO glyphosphates, NO ONE is talking about and even bigger elephant in our collective Food rooms and that is Nano technology in our foods. do you know, at least part, of what is attempting to be done with nanoteching our food? my stars.I am current with breaking knowledge but not this stuff. seems mankind will not cease to attempt to alter his creators place until he does himself in trying to create it himself..only a moron would ascribe to this future.picture. Glyphosphate, the active ingredient of Roundup herbicide, is a known cancer causing agent. Further, it contains a hormonal mimic that can cause the off spring of persons exposed to have sexual deviations, like lesbianism or homosexuality. That is probably why the incidences of all these effects are on the increase in our herbicidal addicted country. glyphosphate contains a hormonal mimic that can cause the off spring of persons exposed to have sexual deviations, like lesbianism or homosexuality. really ? got links to some scientific studies ? remember, your pastor is most likely not certified to do the research.. ??initial spraying of glyphosate prepares the test subjects for the GAY test where multiple samples will be collected , behavioral experiments and questionnaires performed ,studied and analyzed by trained professionals until they get the necessary data set assembly needed to conclude the experiment as politically correct as possible ??. Its good to see them openly acting as the dictators they are. This helps to reinforce the understanding in the peoples minds. THIS ISNT A GAME!!! Its obvious they wont listen so just keep on educating the people to avoid anything sprayed with Glyphosate and or thats GMO and non-organic. They can only trick you into eating it. Not force you. Let their poison go unsold in stores.
