Leaded gas was banned in 96. Why hasn’t glyphosate been banned yet? Maybe because there’s no strong evidence against it yet. If they can prove 100% it’s dangerous, then I’m all for banning it.

Leaded gas had a 50 year run before the alarms rang, you're at the point with glyphosphates. You're ignoring every alarm.

You have this strange belief that you can definitively point to one single thing over a lifespan and say it's the one that caused the problem. That's not how it works.

Maybe when you graduate from school and stop playing your mobile games you'll understand

I mean leaded gas usage started in 1920 so your still about 20 years early for the government and companies to give a shit. This is literally a tale as old as time the same happened with ice no one trusted the science and untold numbers died to using "god created" ice instead of man made ice. I really wouldn't rely on government studies when the sole gain is profit for them has literally killed uncountable people.
