Other studies are finding that glyposate at any level are carcinogenic though like it says near the end.

I'm all for this sort of thing but it is usually always run by people with an agenda. There used to be a huge scare about some foodstuff having an ingredient in it that was "an atom away" from weedkiller or similar which was kind of distressing how a lot of people believed it.

In any case it's interesting to see it on the news. I find it weird that they're pushing that rat study; if anything it makes their points seem less accurate/worth listening to.
