    Bit of a joke 60 minutes Roundup Episode

    They may have in adevetantly helped the cause.

    One example errrr showed footage of a golf course but more likely a park being sprayed with glyphosate

    Tractor and boom.

    Hmmmm composition of golf course ......grass

    Glyphosate kills grass

    You wonder they don’t understand it’s basic use and weed spectrum and show possible incorrect footage how can they report factually. I’m sure most farmers picked up on it. I turn the Channel over nothing to fear.

    But I’m not anti organic or pro chemical but debate is humorous as it is tiresome.

    Some key industry players and associated industries asked to be interviewed by 60 min but were denied or ignored there perogative there show

    You have"inadvertently" shown your ignorance. You have next to no credibility. The golf course or park being sprayed makes perfect sense when you use Roundup for lawns. It contains no glyphoshit, but a simple ****tail of broadleaf herbicides. Since you changed the channel I'll fill you in on the most humorous segment. It was Fiona Simpson from the NFF showing her willful ignorance of the whole matter.

        So, you have spent all this effort and time educating us about the horrors of glyphosate, but you haven't got a clue what it is, or what it kills, or how it works? I suggest you do an experiment, spray the broadleaf weeds on your lawn, or local golf course with a healthy dose and see what the results are. Please let us know how it works, and any ill effects you may suffer. And remember, this is for posterity, so be honest.

          Thanks for exposing your ignorance
          "Roundup for lawns"is an actual product on the market. Look up the actives

            Doesn't contain any glyphosate.

            0.257% MCPA, dimethylamine salt, 0.118% Quinclorac, 0.029% Dicamba, dimethylamine salt, 0.015% Sulfentrazone

            So how does this relate to your crusade against glyphosate?

              You're still the confused and most likely drunk Austra, Mallee said the confusion is showing what is to be assumed glyphosate in use since the show was on glyphosate. Not that hard to catch on for most people.

                Hilarious in so many ways. No glyphosate but still "evil". Monsanto/Bayer "bad" but this product is marketed by Scotts. What is wrong with these morons. I bet if they bred a new variety of lettuce and called it Roundup lettuce it would be the next focus of these groups attention.

                  Unfortunately your the one that is ignorant. Glyphosate is the active that all the law suits and controversy is about. Round Up is of course one of the brand names it has been sold under. They can call any chemical anything and they often do. You can't change trains in the middle of the track 99% of the Round Up references are about glyphosate. Now I realize you hate all chemicals, maybe you should add the ones that you buy at the pharmacy if you want to group them all together. Ironically I believe that it has actually been the surfactants that have caused the occasional toxic problems with glyphosate formulations. There have been many different ones tried and I understand that Monsanto actually changed surfactants because there were issues. (They will never admit that.) Try and find information on the surfactants that are in most chemicals...… they will often not even name them or give you the LD 50 on them. Often they are significantly more toxic than the active ingredient as is the case with glyphosate when tested alone...……….

                      It relates to the ignorance of some blindly defending the perceived safety of glyphoshit, and we haven't even added the ongoing exposure through your diet yet. Now educate yourself while I have my bedtime glass of organic milk

                        There is no organic milk. People are spraying glyphosate as well as other chemicals they are in the air water soil everywhere including unsprayed land.

                            Wonder if those are on the organic milk label.

                            There aughta be a law.

                              Have a f ucking snickers with that glass of milk while you're at it.

                              Your ability to win friends and influence enemies is terrible!
