Pesticides on Trial: Killing Weeds or Causing Cancer?

from The Peoples Voice Podcast · host Trey Evans

Pesticides are chemicals used in farming to protect crops from insects, weeds, and diseases. Some people are worried that certain pesticides may cause cancer or other health problems. A major court case involving Bayer, a major manufacturer of some of these pesticides, is now being argued in the Supreme Court. The case could decide if companies have to put cancer warnings on their products. The decision could affect farmers, consumers, and pesticide makers across the country by deciding how much information must be included on labels and who controls the rules. In this episode, I discuss the case, the arguments from both sides, and foods we all eat that are treated with these pesticides.#weedkiller#cancer#supremecourt#farming#glyphosate#WHO#EPA Check out the webiste for more infohttp://treyevansthepeoplesvoice.com/  #thepeoplesvoicepodcast#social issuesCopyright Disclaimer Under Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research
