To the EU Commission, Council and Parliament:

As concerned citizens from around the world, we urge you to vote against the renewal of the authorization of glyphosate-based pesticides, and bring a support plan for farmers, while accelerating the phase-out of synthetic pesticides, with a clean transition of our agriculture and our food systems, in accordance to the broader objectives set by the Green New Deal and Farm to Fork Strategy.

Ban this toxic chemical for good!
Glyphosate is known as the bee-killing pesticide. But it’s not just bees.

It’s one of the most toxic things ever produced on the planet, with horrifying health impacts. It's been found in babies’ nappies, may lead to pregnancy problems, and it increases the risk of some cancers by over 40 percent!!

But in weeks we have a golden opportunity to ban this toxic poison in Europe.

It all comes down to one vote, but pesticide giants are pulling out all the stops, to lobby politicians and protect their profits.

We can’t let it happen.

If we can't trust all politicians to do the right thing, we must trust each other to create the change we need -- and that starts right now.

Eliminating glyphosate in Europe can be a game changer worldwide, paving the way for innovations in the agricultural sector to help support farmers, transform food systems all across the world, and protect our precious nature. Sign now.
