At 10 years old, Smithsonian’s Black museum is undaunted amid pressure from Trump administration “US Executive Order Shields Key Chemicals, Including Roundup and White Phosphorus, Under National Security Pretext”
executive order shields chemicals:
In a notable move, a recent executive order has been issued to safeguard certain critical chemicals, sparking interest and debate. The order, which cites national security concerns, extends protection to the widely used herbicide Roundup, as well as the country’s sole supply of white phosphorus, a highly flammable and contentious munition. This development has raised questions about the intersection of environmental, health, and national security interests. By invoking national security, the executive order aims to ensure the continued availability of these chemicals, which have significant implications for various sectors, including agriculture and defense. The move is likely to be scrutinized by stakeholders, including environmental groups, health advocates, and industry representatives, as they weigh the potential consequences of this decision on public health, the environment, and national security.
