US Forest Service Spraying Glyphosphate
Join an investigative journalist as they explore the US Forest Service's use of glyphosate, a key ingredient in Roundup, in the Sierra at Tahoe forest. Despite studies showing the harm it can cause to human health and the environment, the Forest Service has been spraying thousands of acres with this herbicide. The journalist delves into the reasons behind this practice, which is intended to prepare the land for conifer tree planting, and examines the impact it has on the surrounding ecosystem. From the Caldor fire scar to the ski runs and chairlifts of Sierra Tahoe, the investigation reveals the widespread use of glyphosate and its potential consequences. With over $12 billion in legal payouts to those affected by glyphosate, this documentary sheds light on a critical issue that affects not only the environment but also human health. Learn more about the Forest Service's plan and the effects of glyphosate on the forest and its inhabitants.
