This isn’t the lesser evil because the other choice isn’t evil. In fact, if we keep going like this we won’t just experience a relatively minor reduction in food production, we will have close to no production and little to no suitable soil for agriculture.

Sure, but that's all long term. Whether they really need to extend glyphosate by 15 instead of 5 years however is a good question.

Long term? We're in the "long term" already.

Nope. We should be, but we aren't.
