Bayer, announced that it would stop selling the current version of Roundup for home and garden use in U.S. stores, starting in 2023.
Bayer said it would replace the herbicide’s main ingredient, glyphosate, with an unspecified active ingredient, subject to federal and state approval, while continuing to sell Roundup with glyphosate for farm use.
1 “Unspecified active ingredient” Thank you _so_ much Bayer.
2 “continuing to sell Roundup with glyphosate for farm use”
Thank you _so_ much Bayer.
3 “unspecified active ingredient, subject to federal and state approval”
Wait: isn’t that what got us glyphosate in the first place?
4 “U.S. stores, starting in 2023”
Wow 2 years to _stop_ selling something. Thank you _so_ much Bayer.
Sigh!
But I did just get two new clients that want to get the chlorine out of their backyards. And are really excited about contributing to the habitat for native wetland animals such as dragonflies, damselflies, Pacific chorus frogs, ducks, etc, etc.
