It was 1990 and Michael Mesure was en route to a wildlife rehabilitation centre. One of his many passengers was a common yellowthroat, a tiny black and yellow warbler that had crashed into a window. As Mesure was driving, the bird escaped from its paper bag and perched on the rearview mirror. What happened next was even more astonishing: the bird began to sing. Mesure was enchanted. The yellowthroat continued to serenade him until the very moment it collapsed into his lap, dead.

The German pharmaceutical company has been struggling to finalize the settlement of claims that Roundup, a glyphosate-based weedkiller, causes a form of cancer called non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma.
When Bayer AG acquired the agrochemical company Monsanto in 2018, it also acquired thousands of lawsuits from customers, many of whom alleged that Monsanto’s Roundup gave them non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma.
Bayer AG insists that decades of studies show Roundup does not cause cancer. Last January, the
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) affirmed the company’s claim, stating that glyphosate-based products pose no risk to human health if used according to their current labels.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) backed agrochemical giants like Bayer AG by affirming that the pesticide poses no risks to human health despite initially agreeing with WHO.
EPA’s wishy-washy approach to regulating, if not totally banning, glyphosate might soon be put to rest now that the non-profit advocacy group Center for Food Safety (CFS) has filed its opening arguments and evidence in its litigation challenging the EPA’s re-approval of the controversial pesticide ingredient.
Representing a broad coalition of farmers, farmworkers and conservationists, CFS filed its lawsuit in March in the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. The groups involved seek to have glyphosate prohibited from use or sale in light of what they thought was an unlawful approval.

there is the ongoing research project specifically on the building, and this is under way so they cannot release the data. they have adjusted the building design, which they will regulate in this proposal. they have external screens that can be designed for energy efficiency. but after monitoring the issue and determine that there was no problem there during the migratory time during the fall san francisco animal care and control have selected numerous songbirds with a catalog of those, trying to make a note about what caused the death. and that is primarily the information that we were talking about, with the national sciences, this is not so much locally specific. we take great pride in the people who are here, and the behaviors that we exhibit in san francisco. good behavior is much more consistent and much more predictable. and why is there more research, why do we have this here and not on the west coast. this may have to be there have been projects that were u
