> the European Food Safety Authority determined that glyphosate is unlikely to be a carcinogen
Yet Europe has banned glyphosate (it is allowed in the US). Curious

Just to play devil’s advocate for a second: the fact that the EU has banned glyphosate does not mean that it’s a confirmed carcinogen. It only means that it’s considered harmful, which it can be in many other ways apart from causing cancer.

The EU was concerned about marine toxicity and the potential for the concentrated forms to cause serious eye damage!
