blogs.mercola.com/sites/vitalvotes/archive/2021/03/23/increasing-levels-of-glyphosate-being-found-in-manatees.aspx “A new study on Florida manatees shows that they are being chronically exposed to glyphosate, an herbicide used on sugarcane and aquatic weeds, with the stormwater treatment areas “significantly higher” before and during sugarcane harvesting. Scientists said they found glyphosate in the plasma of 55% of manatees tested, and that the concentration of the weed killer in the plasma had increased between 2009 and 2019. “The results of this recent study are cause for serious concern about the chronic use, fate and effects of glyphosate on the manatee population in south Florida,” John Cassani of Calusa Waterkeeper, told Sustainable Pulse. “An increasing trend for glyphosate in manatee plasma that correlates with concurrent increased usage of glyphosate is disturbing, especially at a time when manatee mortality is at very high levels. The authors report the same level of glyphosate exposure that manatees experience, causes kidney and liver damage in laboratory animals.”” My notes: & still people think it's not harming the environment.
