🧨🧪 Finally, after 26 years, the ‘famous’ paper claiming #Roundup #glyphosate does not cause #cancer has been retracted! This is a serious blow… but unfortunately too late with already disastrous consequences for #publichealth.

🚀 #DaftPunk has just released a new video for their track #Contact, which came out 12 years ago on the album #RandomAccessMemories. The clip features two helmeted figures flying over Earth with audio from the #Apollo17 mission enhancing the experience. Love it! 🥰
