Why is this important?
“Monsanto/Bayer developed Roundup and other Glyphosates that kills weeds....also kills milkweed. (Note: Milkweed is the only plant on which monarch butterflies will lay their eggs). So we have decimated the monarch butterfly population, reduced it over the last two decades by 90 percent.” Bill Nye, The Science Guy.
