HTML:<b>Rachel Carson Environment Book Award, First Place (2017)</b><br /> <b>"Reads like a mystery novel as Gillam skillfully uncovers Monsanto's secretive strategies."—Erin Brockovich</b><br /> <b>"A damning picture...Gillam expertly covers a contentious front." —<i>Publishers Weekly</i></b><br /> <b>"A must-read." —<i>Booklist</i></b><br /> <b>"Hard-hitting, eye-opening narrative." —<i>Kirkus</i></b><br /> In <i>Whitewash</i>, veteran journalist Carey Gillam uncovers one of the most controversial stories in the history of food and agriculture. Gillam explores the global debate over the safety of a herbicide so pervasive that it is found in our cereals, snacks, and even in our urine. Known as Monsanto's Roundup by consumers and as glyphosate by scientists, the world's most popular weed killer is sold as safe enough to drink, but Gillam's research shows that message has been carefully crafted to conceal a host of dangers. <i>Whitewash</i> is more than an exposé about the hazards of one chemical. It's a story of power, politics, and the deadly consequences of putting corporate interests ahead of public safety. Media Type: eBook.
