Roundup transformed farming in the U.S. Could it change regulation too?
About this episode
The episode discusses the implications of the Supreme Court's upcoming ruling on cancer warnings related to Roundup, a widely used weedkiller.
The Supreme Court will soon rule on who gets to decide when a product needs a cancer warning – and who can sue if they’ve been exposed. At the center of the highly politicized debate is America’s most successful weedkiller, Roundup. *** Thank you for listening. Help power On Point by making a donation here: wbur.org/giveonpoint
