Big bad Monsanto is terrorizing at lands with roundup-ready crops. And where do we imagine most of the residue ends up? That's right, our water!

Do they do large scale application there?<br /><br />And I just heard on an interesting MHP show on MSNBC that as a result of the use of genetically modified crops around the world between 1996-2011, the use of herbicides increased by 511 million pounds.
