There is also this video of a gardener who hopes for a future for his children, without shocking his audience too much:

Member of CRIIGEN and author of a thesis carried out in the team of Prof. Séralini studying the effects of pesticides and GMOs on health, Robin Mesnage is now a toxicologist in the department of molecular and medical genetics at King's College London. He comes back exclusively for A&E on the case of glyphosate. The comments made by the author do not bind CRIIGEN. :
Glyphosate is essential for farms that practice soil conservation agriculture and the alternatives are often more expensive, less effective, and sometimes even more toxic to humans or the environment. It is clear, however, that these farms will have to learn to diversify their weeding practices. Dependence on a single pesticide can not be a sustainable strategy. However, the transition can not be done overnight.
It seems sensible to go towards an agriculture where prophylactic practices inspired by agroecology are integrated with chemical and mechanical weeding. I think it is legitimate to try to reduce exposures to toxic pesticides, but glyphosate is far from being at the top of the list.
However, do not go with prejudices about chemicals and give in to chemophobia. It is not because a chemical compound is toxic in plants that it will be toxic to humans. There are even some molecules that are used both as drugs and as pesticides. There are, of course, many chemical pollutants that are toxic and contribute to an outbreak of chronic disease, but there is a need for judgment.
The cleavages must now be overcome to ensure a sustainable diet. Plant biotechnology offers solutions that can be very effective. So-called "artisanal" seeds can coexist without problem with GMOs. All solutions are good to take to meet the challenge of climate and demography. Why not grow genetically modified plants using agro-ecological approaches?
