Far too many of our children are being diagnosed with leukemia. What’s going on? A recent study has pointed a finger at glyphosate, a widely used herbicide in both agricultural and landscaping practices. Childhood leukemia and central nervous system cancers have been on the rise since 2003, with a yearly increase of about 1%, and some scientists suggest that glyphosate may be a key contributor to this unsettling trend.
