Despite a growing block of opposition to it, the European Union has voted to give glyphosate another 10 years of life for use with crops grown with chemicals like Roundup. The German government & Bayer used their power and money to "convince" the EU.
Originally a Monsanto product, Bayer a big German chemical company, now owns Roundup, along with billions of dollars in lawsuits of consumers claiming the herbicide caused their cancers.
Bayer bought Monsanto for $63 billion in 2018 and announced it would pay up to $10.9 billion to settle about 125,000 filed and unfiled claims.
