Roundup Mass Tort
Welcome to understanding Roundup Mass Tort: Empowering Those Affected by Glyphosate Exposure
Roundup, a popular herbicide produced by Monsanto (now owned by Bayer), has been at the center of controversy due to its active ingredient, glyphosate. While marketed as safe and effective for weed control, numerous studies have linked glyphosate exposure to serious health concerns, sparking a wave of litigation known as Roundup Mass Tort. If you or a loved one has been impacted by glyphosate exposure, understanding the history, overview, and eligibility criteria is essential.
Understanding the Situation:A Brief History of Roundup:
Roundup, introduced in the 1970s, quickly became one of the most widely used herbicides globally, favored by farmers, landscapers, and homeowners alike for its effectiveness in killing weeds. However, concerns about the safety of glyphosate, its active ingredient, began to surface as scientific research highlighted potential health risks associated with exposure.
