……Allows Cancer Warning on Roundup.  California is the first U.S. state to require Monsanto to label its blockbuster weed killer, Roundup, as a possible carcinogen, according to a ruling issued Friday by a California judge.

Fresno County Superior Court Judge Kristi Kapetan previously issued a tentative ruling on Jan. 27 in Monsanto Company v. Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment, et al.

Judge Kapetan formalized her ruling Friday against Monsanto, which will allow California to proceed with the process of listing glyphosate, the active ingredient in Roundup, as a chemical “known to the state to cause cancer” in accordance with the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986, better known as Proposition 65.

Read the whole story here by Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. He was on the front lines at Standing Rock too.  He seems to always be standing on the right side of right.  We owe him a debt of gratitude. California judge rules AGAINST Monsanto and allows cancer warning to go onto Roundup.
