PBS – A federal appeals court on Friday rejected a Trump administration finding that the glyphosate in the weed killer Roundup does not pose a serious health risk and is “not likely” to cause cancer in humans.
While EPA has said it has not found evidence of cancer risk from glyphosate, California and other states have listed it as a cancer risk and local governments across the country have restricted its use. In 2015, the World Health Organization’s International Agency for Research on Cancer classified the chemical as “probably carcinogenic.”
