08.02.18 Panel Diskussion: Fritz Günzler: „Glyphosat – Wundermittel oder gefährliches Pflanzengift“?
Early on in our project we tried to find a suitable topic. Glyphosate was one of the candidates we wanted to work with. To get additional information about the herbicide, to understand the opinion of the general public and politicians and to get an overview of the magnitude of the controversial discussion, we participated in a public panel discussion hosted by the politician Fritz Günzler, named Glyphosate – miracle cure or dangerous plant toxins? Soon it became apparent, that this question is not easily answered, and a heated discussion arose between politicians and the audience. On the one hand, farmers rely on the very efficient herbicide to produce sufficient amount of food, while on the other hand, the long-term effects of glyphosate are debated as well as the ever-present suspicion of it being cancerogenic. We soon realized, that due to this heated climate in the community, more independent research on the topic is necessary and we prompt decided that this was our topic of choice.
