Glyphosate does not cause cancer … if you read about it over the weekend.
That was the conclusion of a report published online by the Environmental Protection Agency on Friday, April 29, 2016, finally shutting down a 30-year debate by giving a definitive answer to a hotly contested topic. But, by Monday, May 2, it was gone.
The report, “Evaluation of the Carcinogenic Potential of Glyphosate,” was published by the Cancer Assessment Review Committee (CARC), the branch of the EPA that determines if a chemical causes cancer in humans.
The cover page states:
“On September 16, 2015, the Cancer Assessment Review Committee (CARC) of the Health Effects Division, of the Office of Pesticide Programs, evaluated the carcinogenic potential of Glyphosate in accordance with the EPA’s Final Guidelines for Carcinogen Risk Assessment. Attached please find the final Cancer Assessment Document.”
The final document – with the word “FINAL” found on the top right corner of each of the 87 pages.
So, that sounds pretty final.
Until the EPA removed the final report from its website........To Read More....
