Independent peer reviewed studies have found that GLYPHOSATE based herbicides adversely impact 15 species of fish. This leads us to ask: What about the species they didn't test.... as well as us homo sapiens? Hold onto those goldfish in you...r backyard pond. Scotts' Roundup Ready grass could be coming to a neighbor's yard near you...
For your reading pleasure, here are links to the science that backs this up:
