Now Its the Beer

So 50 ppb of glyphosate is somehow more shocking than 50 million ppb of a proven carcinogen

You are referencing the alcohol content?

Them there’s fightin words. 🙂

Seriously that is the reality of beer. That was the dumbed down comparison I needed to get the proper perspective of this research.
A quick wikipedia search says 3.6% of the worlds cancer cases are from consumption of alcohol. Good point DaleK.

I think ppb this much

.000,000,1 grams per 1000 mls

If the measurement was in grams(mass) per liter of liquid.

Yep perspective is I think the main thing lacking in society anymore.

Run a background on who did the testing..... Ralph Naders group. Oil was first, ag is next.

Ag is next watch they are coming after us now.

Processed meat ah shit is good.


No it’s crap but millennials eat it up

1 PPB is one drop in 250 x 55 gal drums of beer.

The only reason this looks like anything is because the graff it causing the top one to look like a lot more than the lower ones.

I don't believe they had a sample test "0" PPB.

Trudeau will probably promise to ban the use of preharvest glyphosate and get reelected. If you've sold your swathers, go buy them back.

I said they are coming for farmers and they don’t care if we farm safe and care for our animals they want it processed in a lab. Oh it tastes like shit.

I've always had a problem with the choice of measurement media uses when defining spills, as in the oil industry. Media tends to list them in terms of liters of product. It catches the imagination as most people only look at the large first number, not the measure.

Now, instead of spills, we get a media report on swills of 5 to 50 parts per billion. Damn. that has got to be a rounding error in a billion until you look, and it's recorded out in the decimal range. If media really wants to get the public hyper concerned over swills, I'm astounded that the measure wasn't in parts per trillion out to the at least the second decimal.

Was the measurement I posted right? Isn't that a millionth of a gram in a liter?

Doesn't that put it in perspective?

Source was US PRIG.
Now let's see their test in ppb, of all metals in the beer and all tap water.
Perspective. A lost concept.

Thought glyfos killed the germ?
How could it make malt.
