12. Never mind, I found the study.

by the USGS on findings of glyphosate in rain water and air.

Don't get me wrong, Mother Earth News has a deep concern about the horrible affects of glyphosates on the environment. I just couldn't find where they quoted this particular study.

Here is the link to Mother Earth News where they talk about it.

They posted this: "Correction: This post originally linked to a study whose methods and conclusions have been challenged, and which we’re not comfortable relying on. For a better explanation of the issues around glyphosate please see this article. We’ve removed this post from our story listings but are keeping this page available for the record."

Anyway, I truly believe glyphosates are dangerous to the environment. Reading the abstract, the study seems to be valid. I think I will get the full text.

Thanks for posting the link.
