Cherry,
Is this the end of the line for glyphosate?
Austria, France and Germany have passed
groundbreaking bans on Bayer-Monsanto’s probable carcinogen. And
just now, a new poll funded by SumOfUs members like you
revealed that the vast majority of people in three other key
countries want the toxic weedkiller out of Europe
immediately.
This is the time to strike.
With enough mounting opposition across the continent,
Bayer-Monsanto won’t have a prayer of renewing its precious
herbicide when its license ends in 2023.
That’s why
we’re calling on you to join the growing chorus and demand a
ban in the United Kingdom -- as well as every other country
in the EU.
Tell
the government of the United Kingdom to ban glyphosate
now!
85 percent in Belgium. 79 percent in
Ireland. 92 percent in Spain. No matter the place, the
message is unmistakable: Europe’s citizens want a glyphosate ban,
and they want it now.
But Bayer-Monsanto -- and its army of
lawyers and lobbyists -- couldn’t care less. Over in the US,
the megacorporation is “prepared to go through the entire court
system” to fight cancer patients demanding justice. And
here in Europe, Bayer’s top pesticide exec said the company would
“consider legal action” if the EU bans glyphosate.
There’s
only one way to defeat Bayer’s billion-euro muscle: with our
combined people power. It’s up to us to mobilise all of
Europe against the pesticide giant -- the same way we did
when we convinced the EU to ban Bayer’s bee-killing neonics last
year, or when our pressure got glyphosate’s license time slashed in
half the last time it was up for renewal in 2017.
Country by
country, your opposition can get this toxic chemical off the
continent. All you need to do is tell your own government
you’re one of the millions of people in favour of a ban.
Are you with us?
Yes!
I’ll tell the government of the United Kingdom to pass an immediate
ban on glyphosate.
