Un juriu din California, Statele Unite, a dat o decizie fără precedent prin care obligă Mosanto la plata a 2,055 miliarde de dolari ca urmare a unui proces intentat de către cuplul Alva şi Alberta Pilliod,
Aceştia au acuzat că produsul Round Up, pe care l-au folosit de-a lungul a trei decenii, un erbicid produs de către Mosanto, foarte popular pentru eliminarea buruienilor din culturi, a fost cauza pentru care amândoi au dezvoltat acelaşi timp de cancer:
limfom non-Hodgkin,notează
CNN.
Unul dintre avocaţii cuplului, Brent Wisner, a declarat că acest verdict reprezintă un avertisment pentru Mosanto că trebuie să îşi schimbe politicile legate de producerea şi folosirea de substanţe periculoase sau cu potenţial periculos în produsele comercializate.
Bayer, compania care deţine Mosanto, declară că nu sunt mulţumiţi cu verdictul care a fost dat. De asemenea, ei susţin că
glifosatul, un compus chimic despre care se crede că ar fi cauzat îmbolnăvirea celor doi soţi, este complet sigur.
Bayer declară, de asemenea, că dovezile aduse de către avocaţii cuplului nu sunt concludente şi inconsistente cu declaraţia agenţiei americane de protecţie a mediului, care a catalogat glifosatul ca fiind sigur atunci când este folosit în mod corespunzător.
Trebuie făcută precizarea că procesele care incriminează glifosatul au devenit mai dese ca urmare a unui anunţ al Organizaţiei Mondiale a Sănătăţii în care se sugerează că susbtanţa ar putea fi cancerigenă.
