World Health Organization Admits Roundup ‘Probably’ Causes Cancer

For over 40 years Monsanto’s patented glyphosate formula, better known as Roundup, has become a staple for farmers, gardeners, and landscapers. Monsanto has gone so far as to create genetically modified crops capable of withstanding massive amounts of the pesticide without dying. These ‘Roundup Ready’ crops, such as corn, soy, and canola, have since come to dominate America’s agricultural industry.
But over the years, many researchers have questioned whether these heavily sprayed crops are safe for human consumption. As time goes on, it appears that some institutions are beginning to change their tune on the popular pesticide.
(Reuters) – The world’s most widely-used weed killer can ‘probably’ cause cancer, the World Health Organization said on Friday.
