People forget AllanB Multinationals change the names of their products. we can't boycott what we don't know about.
We should be demanding more of our governments instead of buying pink outfits and pink ribbons,baking cup cakes with pink icing , to raise money for a disease they know they can cure.if they stop these products

Calm down dears, [famous phrase from a uk advert] we use lots of poisons all the time. Their sensible use is a real advance, its just that we need to kill lots of kittens to prove they work. There is a role for herbicides, even very effective ones, we just need to know that if not abused, they are safe to us.

Well said!

I bet the very same things were said about DDT or thalidomide.
Profit is the driving force behind these companies and who knows what horrors they would have inflicted on us if they were allowed to operate without regulations.

uk_grenada

Shock horror, companies operate for profit! Never knew that. Of course all companies want to kill their customers cause errrr?

EMR

If there were not the regulations, not the history of litigation, huge fines etc etc do you think that the likes of Monsanto wother banks of lawyers, would bother to meet all the national standards imposed on them.
When did any company like them say we're are voluntarily going to withdraw a product from the market even though we are not under any pressure to do so because we now know it will have long term effects, not 5 years or 10 even 15 .
When did they say we will give up all those years of profits because it's the right thing to do.
Have you ever heard of Bhopal and Union Carbide?

Nothing to do with the name of this thread.

If you dont take the stated precautions and spray people this is what is expected to happen. There are plenty of really dangerous chemicals used in industry, read about the dangers of working in paint shops, take the necessary and legally required precautions and people arent affected.

NB fir this chemical you are supposed to hate dow chemicals.
