The Poison Papers – Documenting the history of pesticide hazards in the United States

The Poison Papers – Documenting the history of pesticide hazards in the United States

 

https://www.poisonpapers.org/ -


An explosive potential comparable to that of the Monsanto Papers,
Panama Papers and co: over 100,000 pages documenting the collusion of US regulatory authorities and pesticide companies.

So far, only journalists at US outlet The Intercept have started digging through the 'Poison Papers' (https://theintercept.com/…/chemical-industry-herbicide-poi…/ - ).


But with German agribusiness giant Bayer's application for a takeover
of US company Monsanto - at the centre of the new revelations - already
filed with the EU Commission, the 'Poison Papers' are of utmost
relevance to Europe, too.

Which investigative journos in Europe will get on this? Ideas? Suggestions? Volunteers?
