OK , on the bobbins scale - you are comparing plant killing chemicals with safe medications?
Then why dont you fill a pint pot with a correct dosage, and drink it?
Would you be happy with your kids trying this experiment?
You are parading your ignorance here. All "safe medications" as you call them are chemicals, which you seem to be worried by. And all "safe medications" have side effects, some of which are very bad indeed.
And I am not comparing two different things here. Benzalkonium chloride is used in moss killers and
exactly the same chemical is used in medicines.
I would have no problem drinking a pint of something containing benzalkonium chloride
at the correct dosage. As I said, that is the key issue.
You place your trust in chemical companies such as Monsanto & Bayer - years after massive environmental and human claims bankrupted Monsanto, its still being sued for billions.
Its been Common knowledge for decades that chemicals are killing the world's Flora & Fauna - perhaps you dont do common knowledge like you dont seem to do common sense?
Your understanding of this area seem rather flaky. There is no company called Monsanto, it was bought
in toto by Bayer. So what you are trying to portray as two separate sources is actually only one. Also Monsanto was not bankrupt but was a going concern when purchased.
And companies do not get to sell whatever they like. There is a rigorous testing regime that anything must pass before it is allowed onto the market.
You seem to be referring to glyphosate and the issue with that largely stems from the US legal system. Once a jury finds fault they, rather than the judge, set the level of compensation. In cases like this (against big business) the jury awards massive damages which entices other people to put in claims. What a lot of those claimants don't realise is that the jury award is normally cut down to a tiny fraction when it is appealed and assessed by a judge. But once the claims are under way the lawyers don't want to drop them as they want their 30% cut.
Interestingly, the patent on glyphosate expired many years ago and lots of other companies have made it. But none of them are being sued. So there must be something different about the glyphosate made by Monsanto/Bayer. Or, radical thought, it couldn't possibly be because Monsanto/Bayer have deeper pockets could it?
And the claims of glyphosate 'causing cancer' (which has never been proven) is supported by one health agency as opposed to the dozens that take the opposite view.
"Common knowledge for decades that chemicals are killing the world's Flora & Fauna" is even more bobbins. Call something a chemical and you seem to be scared of it with no regard for the context. Everything and everyone is made of chemicals, but context & concentration are key.
Sodium and chlorine in their elemental form are very nasty. Put them together and you have sodium chloride. Also know as table salt. A sprinkle on your chips is fine, consume a couple of ounces at once and you will probably die. Context & concentration.
