Monsanto Sues CA from Listing Glyphosate as Carcinogen

Post by Maria »

Last September, California’s Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) issued plans to add glyphosate to the state’s list of chemicals known to cause cancer, making it the first state in the country to do so. The state agency’s decision came after the International Agency for Research on Cancer’s (IARC), the World Health Organization’s cancer research arm, infamously declared that glyphosate was a “possible carcinogen” in March 2015.

Monsanto has long maintained the safety of their flagship product and has vehemently denied glyphosate’s link to cancer. The agribusiness giant has also demanded a retraction of the IARC’s report.

Monsanto is now suing OEHHA and the agency’s acting director, Lauren Zeise, in California state court, citing a 2007 study by OEHHA that concluded the chemical was unlikely to cause cancer, Reuters reported.

I predict that this will go all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court, whose judges will rule in favor of Monsanto, as they have no choice in the matter. Monsanto rules our country. Lord have mercy and save us.

Lord Jesus Christ, have mercy on me a sinner.
