What you don't know won't hurt you? True or False?

NEED TO KNOW INFORMATION ON GLYPHOSATE

The answer is a resounding NO as far as..... 'What you don't know won't hurt you.' In fact, I have no idea where that phrase even came from. Moreover, not knowing about Glyphosate and where it's sprayed in your area can seriously affect your dogs health and your health. In fact, it affects the health of so many living things... even frogs!

At the end of this newsletter you will find a button that will take you to a lab that can test for this, one for the water and one for urine.

You'll also find a button to take you to my article which tells all about the history, problems and lawsuits in relation to glyphosate.

the landscaping company for our complex uses 3 different chemicals: Dimension, Round Up and Speed Zone. So our entire complex gets dosed! " She lives in California.

I don't know if I've mentioned this, but I now live in Doylestown. PA. I'm back in town! I live near Point Pleasant Park and Ralph Stover Park. My dog swims in the river at Ralph Stover all the time.

Dr. Donna Gigliotti (a doggy, cat, horse and people chiropractor) lives near Nockamixon State Park. One day, she sees a white piece of paper all curled in on itself stapled to a post on a dock by the lake. She unfurls it and reads the dates that the park is pouring glyphosate into the lake. There's an aquatic form of glyphosate used to control waterlilies and other aquatic plants. After reading this, she calls the park and they tell her that they are a State Park and call the State. She completes a bevy of phone calls being shuttled to the next place and the next place- to no avail. Donna and I look at the source of the water for the river that flows through Ralph Stover Park. Guess what? It's from the overflow dam at Nockamixon Lake!

The park also sprays the rocks that border the lake with RoundUp and other chemicals to keep weeds from growing up near the lake.

The big question is HOW PREVALENT IS THIS? How many lakes and ponds are sprayed with RoundUp (glyphosate is in many products with different names) and other herbicides?

Folks swim their dogs in that lake all the time!

A U.S. judge rejected a $2 billion plan to settle all future claims alleging that glyphosate (Roundup) herbicide causes cancer. Bayer, took the baton from Monsanto by purchasing this company some time ago.

At this point in time, there are some 30,000 ongoing lawsuits involving Roundup, which has injured and killed potentially millions of people due to its persistent toxicity. The legal system seems to actually be siding with the people for once.

Because of this, Bayer is considering withdrawing the Roundup product, along with other glyphosate-based weedkillers, from the United States in order to save itself from a steady stream of likely never-ending legal claims.

Bayer had hoped the $2 billion settlement – a drop in the bucket compared to its overall profits from Roundup – would be applied, allowing the company to continue selling its poisonous formulas to farmers and backyard gardeners without issue. It would appear as though Bayer is instead having to face the music.

The Judge called Bayer’s settlement scheme “clearly unreasonable,” as it would forever shield the company from all future liability for its glyphosate-based products.

Testing Is Available

The first thing I did was to buy test kits - to test for glyphosate in the water. And there is also a kit to test your dog's urine.

I'll Be keeping you informed!
