Abstract
The potential carcinogenic properties of glyphosate are the subject of widespread scientific debate. The US Environmental Protection Agency said in a 2017 draft risk assessment that the herbicide “is not likely to be carcinogenic to humans, while the “European Food Safety Authority”2 maintains a similar stance. In 2015, however, the World Health Organization’s International Agency for Research on Cancer classified glyphosate as “probably carcinogenic to humans”.1 Moreover, the chemical has triggered multiple lawsuits from people who believe that exposure to the herbicide caused their Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma.3
