The EPA just reapproved a pesticide that
kills most crops and causes cancer in humans!
|
In a striking
'screw you' to the people of the U.S., even the farmers they
claim to protect, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
has approved the use of a previously banned pesticide —
previously banned due to its links to cancer and its killer
tendencies towards crops that haven't grown resistant to it,
which is essentially all of them! Tell the EPA to
protect human health and food sources from this poison! Sign the petition demanding the agency rescind
it's reapproval of this killer chemical.
The ingredient in question is
called dicamba, a weedkiller found in two products that the
EPA has unleashed from the safekeeping of the law. This
pesticide actually kills crops, save for the few that have
grown resistant to it — namely cotton and soybeans. Scientists
and farmers who grow other types of crops worry about the
millions of acres that will be negatively affected by dicamba
now that protections have been stripped. Sign the petition and demand that the EPA
immediately take deadly dicamba off the
market!
Thank you,

P.S. Dicamba is
linked to cancer in humans and kills many kinds of crops. Sign to demand regulation! |
