EWG Activists Cheer California Efforts To Ban More Science
California government has a new proposal that could ban thousands of chemicals, even if they are natural.
California is, of course, famously anti-science. The reason lawyers who wanted to sue over weedkillers filed in San Francisco is because it is the most anti-science city in America's most anti-science state. And it worked. Juries readily believe that plants are just tiny green people so a weedkiller that only acts on a pathway not found in humans at all can still somehow cause human cancer. Even if you only sprayed it one time.
