Round-Table with All Guests: What the Future Looks Like for Glyphosate and other toxic agrichemicals. A discussion on how Better Data, Better Messaging, Economic Risk Assessment, Policy Improvements and Legal Action can create positive change on a global scale.
Moderators:
- Tom Eddington is an author, Executive Coach, Business Advisor, and Executive Producer of documentary films. He holds an M.S. in Organization Dynamics from the University of Pennsylvania. As a scholar of Conscious Leadership, he is passionate about bringing more conscious leadership into the world which he does through his coaching and advisory work, film and media projects and Board positions. As CEO of Endangered.global he brings his commitment and experience to impacting climate change and biodiversity loss.
- Henry Rowlands was brought up on a family run sheep farm in the Pembrokeshire National Park in Wales. His connection to both farming and the protection of the Welsh countryside led to a deep interest in issues related to sustainable agriculture from a young age. Following work as a news agency Journalist across Europe, Henry moved on to set up Sustainable Pulse, which is a popular online global media that focuses on sustainable agriculture and sustainable food. In 2015, Henry also set up The Detox Project, which provides Glyphosate Residue Free certification to show that food, supplement and beauty products do not contain the world’s most used weed-killer. The Glyphosate Residue Free certification market has reached over USD $500M in under 4 years. Alongside his work on toxics Henry’s work on regenerative agriculture has involved a concentration on the metrics required to enable global scaling. Henry is part of the Science Committee for the Soil Carbon Initiative and is also on the Sustainable Protein Design Team for the Manitoba Government in Canada.
Panelists:
- Carey Gillam is a Kansas girl, of the heart and home. But her research has taken her throughout rural America. She has spent time with row crop farmers, ranchers, vegetable growers and orchard operators from the Dakotas to Texas, and from California to the Southeast. She has been welcomed inside the high-tech laboratories, greenhouses and corporate offices of some of the largest U.S. agribusinesses. And she has spent countless hours interviewing key U.S. regulators, lawmakers, and scientists. With years of this behind-the-scenes reporting, Gillam has developed deep insight into the risks and rewards of the modern-day food system, and hopes to share that knowledge with others who care about the food they eat and feed to their families. Carey is an award winning journalist and the author of “The Monsanto Papers: Deadly Secrets, Corporate Corruption, and One Man’s Search for Justice”.
- Claire Robinson is co-director and co-editor at GMWatch, a public news and information service that counters the spin of the agricultural biotech industry on genetically modified (GM) foods, crops, and associated pesticides, including glyphosate. Together with two genetic engineers, she is co-author of the book GMO Myths and Truths, A Citizen's Guide to the Evidence on the Safety and Efficacy of Genetically Modified Crops and Foods, which is now in its 4th edition and is available from Amazon. She has authored articles, reports, and scientific publications on the effects of glyphosate and glyphosate-based herbicides on health.
- Dr. Michael Antoniou is a Reader in Molecular Genetics, and Head of the Gene Expression and Therapy Group, King’s College London. His research interests focus on the molecular mechanisms of gene regulation and development of gene expression systems for biotechnological applications. He also uses molecular profiling (“omics”) tools to investigate the endocrine disruptive capability of low, environmentally relevant doses of key pesticides and other chemical pollutants.
- Dr. Daniele Mandrioli, MD, is the Director of the Cesare Maltoni Cancer Research Center of the Ramazzini Institute, Bologna, Italy. He conducts research on environmental toxicants and carcinogens and Evidence Based Toxicology (EBT). Dr. Mandrioli's research on environmental toxicants and carcinogens includes the design and development of bioassays, investigations on the role of aneuploidy in carcinogenesis and reproductive toxicity, and the analysis of different chemical regulations and their implications for public health. Dr. Mandrioli is currently leading the most comprehensive study ever conducted on glyphosate - the Global Glyphosate Study.
- Dewayne ‘Lee’ Johnson, one of the most famous plaintiffs in legal history, sprayed hundreds of gallons of RoundUp over the course of his career as a school groundskeeper in Benicia, California. On one occasion, one of the sprayers he was using broke and he was drenched in RoundUp. In 2014 at age 42, Johnson was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma, which he alleged at trial was caused by the pesticide exposure. In 2017, he was given a terminal diagnosis and was told that he would only live another 6 months. Due to this diagnosis, his trial was expedited.
- R. Brent Wisner is an attorney and senior shareholder in the San Francisco Bay Area office of Baum Hedlund Aristei & Goldman. Brent is driven by a deep-rooted passion for using the law to help those who have been marginalized and hurt by large, and sometimes malicious, corporations. Brent has dedicated his practice to vindicating his client’s rights and holding wrongdoers accountable. After obtaining two landmark verdicts against Monsanto, he has been showered with major awards and recognition. He is the youngest attorney in U.S. history to win a multi-billion-dollar jury verdict.
- Dr. Zach Bush, MD, is a physician specializing in internal medicine, endocrinology and hospice care. He is an internationally recognized educator and thought leader on the microbiome as it relates to health, disease, and food systems. Dr Zach founded *Seraphic Group and the nonprofit Farmer’s Footprint to develop root-cause solutions for human and ecological health. His passion for education reaches across many disciplines, including topics such as the role of soil and water ecosystems in human genomics, immunity, and gut/brain health. His education has highlighted the need for a radical departure from chemical farming and pharmacy, and his ongoing efforts are providing a path for consumers, farmers, and mega-industries to work together for a healthy future for people and planet.
