If correctly used, a University of Guelph research team found no colony-level risk to honeybees from neonic pesticides after going through a number of published and unpublished manuscripts. Upon the request of Bayer and Syngenta, researchers at the University of Gelph, headed by toxicologist Keith Solomon and aide teacher Gladys Stephenson, examined 64 papers from…

The mainstream media has put out a news story citing a study published in the biological research journal of the Royal Society based out of London.

Back in 2014, The London Times uncovered senior scientists linked to environmentalist groups plotting to introduce a study geared to corrupt scientific literature with a manuscript geared to preordain conclusions in an attempt to condemn neonic pesticides. The Times obtained notes from the four scientists who would discreetly select scientists who would conduct peer review…
