| Abstract/Contents: | "The immensely profitable herbicide glyphosate is heavily marketed as environmentally and toxicologically benign. NCAP has compiled research that shows the opposite, the hazards of glyphosate products. NCAP's work has been vigorously discredited by glyphosate's manufacturer. Here, NCAP provides responses to three common criticisms of our work about glyphosate: 1) Although the Journal of Pesticide Reform is not 'peer-reviewed' as are scientific journals, most of the research we cite is from peer-reviewed journals, government documents, or manufacturers' publications; 2) While glyphosate has received favorable evaluations from federal and international agencies, the rest of us should be able to study the underlying data and disagree where appropriate; 3) NCAP is proud to make available information about the hazards of glyphosate, as most of the information easily available to the public discusses only its favorable properties. This focus does not make our work bad science." |
