This Week - Glyphosate

The world is faced with an ever-increasing set of complex challenges requiring an openness to change, a higher level of consciousness, an understanding of how we got here and a systems approach to implementing solutions. This week we’re looking to understand the most used chemical in our food supply - Glyphosate - and the impact it has and is having on human health and the environment.

Glyphosate was originally developed to be a descaling and chelating agent by the Stauffer Chemical Co. Due to its strong metal chelating properties, glyphosate was initially used to clean out calcium and other mineral deposits in pipes and boilers of residential and commercial hot water systems. However, when the U.S. company Monsanto realized that glyphosate had excellent weed-killing properties and launched Glyphosate as a herbicide in 1974 the world changed forever!

Glyphosate is now everywhere - in our food, water and air and is the most used pesticide in the world. Recent revelations, however, led to a $10 Billion payout by Bayer/Monsanto due to the fact that their glyphosate-based herbicide Roundup causes cancer! How this happened and why we should be concerned will be discussed by our esteemed Panelists.

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.

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.

Co-convener:

• Jim Garrison, President, Ubiquity University
