Roundup:  how Monsanto hides health risks and corrupts science, censors scientists and manipulates politicicians and the public

 

Carey Gillam is a veteran environmental, food and agricultural journalist and investigative reporter who has been traveling around the nation for years to observe and report on the state of America's food system, farming and meeting with US regulators, lawmakers, scientists and corporate officials for over 20 years. She is the Research Director of US Right to Know, a non profit consumer organization devoted to exposing the truth about industrial agriculture, the threats of pesticides and GMOs and exposing Big Agriculture's corporate corruption. Earlier, Carey was a Reuters journalist for 17 years. She has been invited by the European Parliament to address the council in autumn about Monsanto and Roundup as the EU considers whether or not to ban Monsanto's glyphosate herbicide. Carey's recent book "Whitewash: The Story of a Weedkiller, Cancer and the Corruption of Science" exposes the role of corporate influence over American agriculture, federal officials and politicians, and its utter disregard for the safety of its chemical products which is devastating the environment and destroying the lives of farmers, their families and the public.
