I think you may be confusing glyphosate with organophosphates. Very different substances.
Glyphosate is an herbicide that works on broad leaf plants (not insects such as bees) and isn’t known for cancer, but is known for causing habitat loss from over use. There isn’t much movement to ban it except over-counter use. Some of the additives to glyphosate sprays (i.e. surfactants) are of some concern. As farm chemicals go, glyphosate is at the safer end of the scale. Especially when compared to…
Organophosphates are known for being nerve agents and has found use as chemical weapons and as insecticides by tailoring the targeted nerve paths. Some are known to cause cancer too. They are known to affect biodiversity and bees by killing and weakening insect populations. Many versions are banned by treaty (sarin, anybody?) and by regulatory edict (parathion). Nasty (but effective) stuff that hopefully will be phased out.
