WHO Glyphosate Report Ends Thirty Year Cancer Cover Up

可持續脈搏- 2015-3-26

“可持續脈搏”【這是英國一家反轉民間機構】跟蹤世衛組織上周發表的報告，順藤摸瓜找出1991年美國環保署文件，表明當時環保署就完全了解草甘膦導致癌症的可能性。

1985年2月11日，美國環保署機構人員首次提出草甘膦可能致癌的問題，並於3越4日召集臨時委員會會議，一致同意將草甘膦致癌性定位C（第三級），即“有證據表明可能致癌”。

6年後環保署將“C”改成“E”，即“無證據表明可能對人體致癌”。此神奇之時點，恰好是孟山都公司開發其首個耐受農達除草劑的轉基因農作物之時。

今日已是2015年，WHO將草甘膦致癌性重歸“C”級。

面對如此疏於保護公眾健康的嚴重事件，我們該譴責誰？美國政府。就是它，在推廣美國生物技術產業、試圖控制全球農業的行動中，順便將草甘膦推廣到全球。

美國政府、環保署，隱瞞真相30年。全球管理機構瀆職，將公眾健康置於公司利潤之下。此事必將垂名於史。

WHO Glyphosate Report Ends Thirty Year Cancer Cover Up

Following on from last week’s Word Health Organization (WHO) report on glyphosate, which confirmed the world’s most used herbicide probably causes cancer, Sustainable Pulse has discovered documents from 1991 that show how the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) themselves were fully aware of glyphosate’s carcinogenic potential.

 【轉基因的小麥！】

On February 11, 1985 the carcinogenic potential of glyphosate was first considered by an EPA panel, called the Toxicology Branch Ad Hoc Committee. The Committee, in a consensus review dated March 4, 1985, then classified glyphosate as a Class C Carcinogen. A Class C Carcinogen has  ”Suggestive evidence of carcinogenic potential” according to the EPA.

This Class C classification was changed by the EPA six years later to a Class E category which suggests “evidence of non-carcinogenicity for humans”. Mysteriously this change in glyphosate’s classification occurred during the same period that Monsanto was developing its first Roundup-Ready (glyphosate-resistant) GM Crops.

It is now 2015 and WHO has put glyphosate’s cancer causing ability back in the spotlight. The question is who is to blame for this shocking lack of protection for public health? The answer is the U.S. government, who have pushed glyphosate around the World as part of their campaign to support the U.S. biotech industry in their attempt to dominate global agriculture.

The thirty-year glyphosate cancer cover up will go down in history as yet another failure, by the U.S. government, the EPA and worldwide regulators, to put the health of the general public before the need to protect and expand company profits.
