Un nuevo estudio publicado abril 6, 2021, en el Journal of Applied Ecology revela que Roundup, el herbicida más utilizado en el mundo, y el foco de demandas recientes relacionadas con el linfoma no Hodgkin, no es solo un herbicida sino también un asesino de abejas.

This study is monumental because the decline of bee populations has been drastically declining since Roundup was introduced to agriculture, landscaping, and backyard gardening in the late 1970s. In the US, the number of honey-bee colonies dropped from 6 million in 1947 to just 2.5 million in 2014. In 2015, Monsanto made nearly $4.76 billion in sales and $1.9 billion in gross profits from herbicide products, mostly Roundup.
