Fwd: How this community banned toxic pesticides in public spaces

[Patriciafaye Marshall]

This exact toxic spraying is done right here in our community- on school tracks, sports fields, parks.  They post "warning signs" with the word "Glyphosate" along EPA permit #'s.

I'm ready to mount a campaign!  If you'd like to find out more and join in please respond to this email!

We're poisoning our kids to kill weeds!!!!!!!!

"We choose to create a restored, vibrant and just world because we are willing to walk alongside our heartbreak and our fear. We do this for those who will pay the price if we fail. And we do it for those who will carry this incalculable hardship if we waver. And for those who are watching to see if we will choose to have more stuff or more life. We do this not because it's lucrative or furthers our prospects. We do this because it mobilizes and enlivens our spirit and intelligence."   Paul Hawken, 2012 Bioneers Conference

A group of concerned parents got together with a local University professor in Irvine, CA and was able to get toxic pesticides banned from their city. They were concerned about unusually high rates of cancer and allergies in children and were able to identify certain chemicals that the city was spraying the could be the cause.

This is a ground-breaking move that gives us all hope. They've put together a playbook to help other communities do the same thing.

This is a must-watch interview (transcripts included). It really got me inspired and I ask that you share it with everyone. It really can help us change things very quickly.
