Glyphosate/RoundUp etc has been shown to have high toxicity for bees and many other animals including humans.

It _was_ considered safe, new data and better science has changed that stance. The article isn't garbage.



Supporting this. I grew up with this stuff and while the ones I know would always use protective gear it was considered safe and the protection was used just to be really sure it seemed.

Today the situation is a lot more nuanced.

...and as I write this I think I could feel the smell of roundup or another herbicide, so yeah I've been exposed it :-/
