“Monsanto's Poison Playbook: How the Chemical Giant
Sold the World on a Toxic Pesticide"
TAP is highlighting a report published by Children’s Health Defense that reveals how corporations can act with impunity when they hold undue influence over government agencies.
The Department of Agriculture oversees agricultural practices in the United States. The case of the broad deployment of glyphosate without limits shows how a federal agency can fall asleep at the wheel.
A new report, by U.S. Right to Know, “Monsanto’s Poison Playbook: How the Chemical Giant Sold the World on a Toxic Pesticide,” illuminates the disinformation, science denial, and manufactured doubt at the core of the pesticide industry’s public relations playbook.
“The pesticide industry is not just following in the footsteps of Big Tobacco and Big Oil, they co-wrote the playbook—from their attacks on “Silent Spring” author Rachel Carson 60 years ago to the recent Monsanto-led assault on the cancer researchers of the World Health Organization,” said Stacy Malkan, lead author of the report and co-founder of U.S. Right to Know.
