March 17, 2015, http://rt.com/usa | “According to the San Diego Reader, city agencies filed suit on Monday, alleging Monsanto hid its knowledge of the toxicity of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). Despite being aware of these facts, the company peddled its chemical compounds for industrial use, including shipbuilding, electrical component manufacture, food packaging and paint plasticizers.”

Monsanto, despite knowing how harmful it was to people and environment, has continued to produce PCBs (polychlorinated biphenyls). The City of San Diego and the San Diego Unified Port District has sued Monsanto for continuing to produce PCBs (polychlorinated biphenyls) despite how harmful it is to people and the environment. PCBs have also been illegal in the United States since 1979.
