Interesting even if you’re not from NY. There are some good summaries (with references) of the science related to environmental exposures and various children’s health effects, e.g. asthma, birth defects, cancers, developmental disorders and obesity.
Similar in scope to EPA’s America’s Children and the Environment,with a few twists, including estimates of economic impacts and a recommendation for a statewide PEHSU-type network funded by NY State Department of Health.
Thanks to Maryann Suero, US EPA, for posting.
"Many people in Argentina are calling on their government to
fund more in-depth research into the effects of glyphosate on humans.
GMO soy is Argentina's leading crop. They are the world's third
largest exporter, and they use between 180 and 200 million liters of
glyphosate annually. In agricultural regions, where the spraying of
this Monsanto chemical is common, numerous cancers have shown up that
are being associated with it."
