Glyphosate performs two primary functions in fertile soil which is a living organism, rich in beneficial microbes; it robs plants of vital nutrients and weakens their immune defenses, resulting in their systematic destruction and eventual death. Today, in many countries worldwide, government agencies as well as their scientific communities, recognize glyphosate as having a direct link to causing cancer. The herbicide not only affects people, but animals, wildlife, their habitat, (plants, soil, water) and even the beneficial insects found in our woodlands. The forest industry says these herbicides hardly even touch the forest floor, yet in actual fact, they remain in the soil for over a year. Northern Pulp, describes the chemical as ‘low risk”. And here in Nova Scotia, our government regulatory agencies have given this chemical a pass rating too. #nspoli
