>> Deb, this is one of the problems with product names, there are formulations of Roundup that contain other herbicides besides glyphosate.
I agree. In Home Depot, I often see gallon jugs with "ROUNDUP" in bright bold letters over an inch tall. If you have good eyesight, pushy your nose flat against the label and squint, you can see the fine print "with XYZ, ABC and LSMFT".
The "other" ingredients (highly toxic and some persistent) might as well be called the active ingredients and the glyphosphate a filler or diluent.
Unthinking or careless buyers see the big cheery word "ROUNDUP" and conclude "it must be safe".
Then the highly toxic, persistent ingredients make it "effective", so they come back and buy more until they drop dead like any wildlife downstream from them.
There's more TRUE INFORMATION in one square inch of fine print than in square FEET of advertising deceit.
Too bad we can't make marketing directors DRINK a cup of anything they label misleadingly.
Sell tickets and contribute the proceeds to environmental monitoring.
