"People try to commit suicide with it and fail **fairly** regularly" this is the most hilarious justification I've ever heard from someone trying to assert that something is safe to drink.
Right??? :'D
It's almost as pathetic as the "I couldn't sweat at the time" excuse
He was just saying the quiet part out loud and I think that it was intentional. 😃
It’s actual true that many a Indian farmers when they go bankrupt can commit suicide - they used to do it by drinking insecticides or herbicides but when glyphosate came along it didn’t work for them - after all you don’t get real world examples of people drinking the stuff unless by mistake or deliberate
Missed that... nice catch!
Saying we dont need regulations becasue we can trust company's to do the right things is the equivalent of saying we dont need laws because we can trust people to not commit crimes
Laws don’t stop people from committing crimes. They are instructions about how to mitigate the harmful actions. This is why you cannot declare something a law or a right that goes against normal population behaviours. When you make public policy forcing people to do an action because you know a significant portion would not do so otherwise you guarantee failure as well as the risk of authoritarian escalation. This, for example, is why mandatory vaccines was outright authoritarian. It turns out people are going to act as you predict they will so you cannot turn segments of the population into criminals merely because you prefer that they acted upon your preferences. It is the same exact thing as a country making homosexuality illegal. Laws should be to protect people from actions that harm you not to enforce ideological agendas that turn out have no scientific basis.
@@ar007r Laws generally must have consequences for breaking them as part of their nature and these consequences stop alot of people and this will be the case even when the law isnt scientificly valid as sadly authoritarians states exist/ only if a law causes enough attantion will people may people fight to change it, so yes laws do stop people from committing crimes and if a laws, a person facing an immoral law wront allways be willing to face the consequences because its not scientificly valid.
If there weren't laws then they wouldn't be crimes you water head.
Yes that’s correct lol
Perfect example
This is what a sellout looks like.
and if you think the mainstream climate scientists are not working under a fixed agenda, highly funded by those who support an agenda, you are quite naive. everyone works under an agenda set by the funders...best is to trust no one and go and experience things yourself.
@@theompman the agenda of Exxon Mobil in 1982 was to show that CO2 has little effect of the earth's climate and the study they've conducted that year hard the exact opposite conclusions. The difference between Moore and scientists is that scientists have to show evidence to support their conclusions, Moore just says whatever he gets pair to say

@@theompman Yeah, this dude gets paid by oil billionaires, because for them climate change is very inconvenient. And who pays the "mainstream climate scientists" who actually do the science?
@@nachfullbarertrank5230 They get paid through millions and billions in project funding through government grants and other billionaires. A funder will fund anything that will get them exponentially in return. Plus the reason I even commented was because "this is what a sellout looks like" is a bit vague...anyone on Earth can be bought to do anything for the right price including Patrick Moore and including the mainstream scientists and working in a field that is today influenced so much by politicians...Buddhas in today's time are few and far between.

It's too bad they cut the clip short.... the actual clip is very funny. The Monsanto shill runs out of the room at the end to stop the interview, calling the interviewer names, and still refusing to drink the toxic sludge he had just declared several times to be totally safe for humans to consume.
Nils Osmar Just because he didn’t drink it doesn’t mean he believes it’s dangerous
Any doctor will tell you a big glass of piss is perfectly safe to drink
Doesn’t mean any of them would drink it .
@@puffdragon26 He literally said "I'd be happy to" and then went on to create the dumpsterfire of a contradiction that was his next sentence after he saw that the interviewer actually had some roundup with him.
Look at how many times he is negating what he just said. "I'd be happy to, no not really, people try to commit suicide with it, and fail, reg- irregularly". And why would he be so pissed and flee the interview if he clearly knew he was justified and right?
Oh, and cant forget that he interrupts any attempt at asking him to clarify his contradictory mess.
You cant just say "I'd be happy to drink this substance" on accident. Like, what did he actually mean to say then? Anything else would have contradicted his position, so there is NOTHING related to drinking it that was relevant to the interview at hand. Yet, he chose to say that drinking it is safe. That is literally not an accident, because he had nothing else to say in place.

Just sniffing glyphosate to some people can do some serious damage to the point were they have to get some parts of their gut taken out.
I mean I believe you, it's roundup the financial compensation, but: source?
@@pumkin610 Don’t believe him, he’s merely parroting Roundup slander. And I’m not saying it’s his fault, because if you don’t use this stuff regularly, how would you know otherwise? It’s lazy reporters, disingenuous researchers, and greedy law firms that have slandered what really is the safest herbicide ever developed. We’ve sprayed thousands of gallons of Roundup over decades of farming, and I’ve all but bathed in it. It’s done me no harm. It’s probably not good to drink, naturally, just like it’s probably not good to eat tide pods even though touching Tide won’t hurt you.
A remarkable claim like that needs some evidence. The stuff is not even volatile. Does sniffing sugar make you gain weight?

Not sure about Roundup but the guy definitely drank the cool aid on Co2 not causing the climate crisis. He says more CO2 is actually good for the environment. What a wack job.
He’s correct. CO2 is the stuff of live. And if you look at a long enough scale, it’s quite independent of temperature; i.e. the ice ages during times of higher CO2.

No, he was just saying the quiet part out loud and I think that it was intentional. 😃
Most people still don't get the fact that:
1. everything bad for plants/weeds/insects, is bad for you
2. everything bad for rats is bad for your neighbourhood cats
3. everything bad for lice is bad for you.
Therefore, only use in a confined space and only when necessary, in a moderate amount. And preferably not at all, if that is possible ofcourse.
If you need to destroy the weeds, use a vinegar-based solution.
If you need to get rid of insects, get ladybugs or give them an 'insect-hotel' so they don't bother you inside the house.
If you have rats, remove the foodsource and capture and re-place them in the woods.
If you have lice, pre-comb with conditioner first, or hair-oil. You can remove a lot of them without the anti-lice-treatments.
The next day, you try the anti-lice-treatments and then the hair-oil again.
Once the 'babies' are there, you try this again. Don't smear your head with acidic-creams instantly, you'll damage your already-bitten-skin on your head.
nice
That's not true, grapes and chocolate are toxic to most animals, but safe for humans, sulforophane kills insects but it's actually beneficial to humans, there's plenty of examples
I mean that's cute and all, but what works in your hobbyist organic garden isn't going to scale up to mass agriculture. There have been in recent years famines that have killed thousands because countries in SE Asia tried listening to someone who said "every chemical is bad, we need to go full organic garden with no chemical pesticides or fertilizers" if it was as simple as spraying vinegar and letting ladybugs swarm your wheat fields we would have never turned to chemical solutions in the first place.
@@default2826 GMO grapes and real chocolate? There was a time when humans and animals ate nothing but organic. Now we have $cience to make our food, drink and medicine better. But I have yet to see improvements. People are becoming more sickly and unhealthy, even when they try to eat and drink right. We have poison in our food, water, medicine and air. A premium must be paid to avoid GMO, fluoride and EMF bombardment. My utility company threatened to shut off service if I refused a SMART meter.
@@derp8575 What GMO grapes?

Just because it's safe to drink don't mean it's good for you.
It’s a weed killer. Even if it wasn’t cancerous it’s not safe to drink.

But did he drink it
ddt: "so safe you could eat it"
People when attacking roundup use 'roundup' and 'glyphosate' interchangeably
We should all make ourselves aware of this
Glyphosate is an actual chemical, a molecule. It is possible for scientists to test Glyphosate on animals and let the readers of the result think the test was about roundup
Roundup is not Glyphosate
It is a blend of many things, including Glyphosate AND also leftovers from the industrial production process that produces the Glyphosate.
In roundup there are smaller amounts of leftover ingredients that are put into the process intending to get the Glyphosate output.
Some of the the chemicals that go into the process and are not completely converted to Glyphosate and are therefore present as impurities in the product "Glyphosate" include:
formaldehyde
N-Nitrosoglyphosate
Both of these are in "Glyphosate" and probably the product called "roundup"
These 2 chemicals are carcinogenic
If people weren’t so interested in making large amounts of money in lawsuits etc … you might get to the simple truth of the matter … the lust after money is the truly the root of evil
The people who don't know science can learn what is LD50 and then talk about drinking a glass of pesticide.
Lol "GMO Advocate" is not an accurate description.

Based on what? Who can disprove the fact that glyphosate is 43% less toxic to humans than table salt? The LD50 data does not lie. Baking soda is 4 times as toxic as glyphosate.

At the designated PPM, it is not a risk. "Use as directed" does not include chugging? Would an organic farmer chug an 8 oz. tumbler of copper sulfate, or any of the deadlier stuff organic farmers use?

I have been using glyphosate for over 40 years, as a licensed pest control operator. 1000 and 1000s of litres of it. None of my clients nor I have ever had any effects from it that were not beneficial. To take it off the market would be disasterous for everyone. If we had to grow all our food organically there wouldn't be enough to go round. Weeds are the most dangerous problem gardeners face.
I managed to grow a bunch of organic food this year in my backyard and the weeds were minimal, and it was my first try.
Do you really think it'd be a disaster? ... maybe people would have to work with their hands a little?
You can try drink a cup of glyphosate

Did you grow enough food to feed a million people for a year? How about a thousand?
I'm guessing it was closer to enough for one or two people. You can't possibly be as well educated on the necessity of weed killers as an actual farmer.
That's why we were not meant to have industrial farming
It's an oxymoron like you
@@nanowasabi4421 the problem is that the more you use pesticide herbicide and fongicide, the more your plant are naturally weak against these creatures, and the more you need to use all of that the next year
That and the fact that you need to buy seed for the sole purpose of bathing it in all those chemicals, in the 60´s people were able to eat but we weren’t using any of that on that much scale, and we were billions, but it somehow changed ? Im not talking going back to all bio and all (it would be impossible to use none fertilizer pesticides etc, for the number of people and the number of animal we feed) but still using less to be less dependent on it and searching alternatives that are either less harmfull or natural should be on the table
So much of what Patrick Moore says is spot on imo. But on this particular topic not so much. Research into the effects of glyphosate had been contradictory, and as such Dr Moore should not have been so sure about his position. No one's perfect. I'm glad he refused a glass.
I don't get why he went so over the top in his defense. He could have stuck to the inconclusiveness of the evidence but instead he went with "it's completely safe to drink weed killer!" What would drinking it even prove? You can drink cigarette ash too but that doesn't make smoking safe.
