The Concept of a Stealth Tanker Isn't as Absurd as You’d Think

So the energy idea is not necessary. Sea otter restoration will suppress the sea urchans that cut of the roots.

An important new step has been taken towards measuring glyphosate herbicide surfactants in the urine of people exposed to Roundup, with the publication of a new study in rats. Surfactants are a type of added ingredient, or adjuvant, that are added to herbicide formulations along with the so-called active ingredient – in the case of Roundup, the active ingredient is glyphosate.
