Trump’s marriage made in hell
To EU Competition Commissioner Vestager, US Head of Antitrust Division, and other regulators:
As citizens from around the world concerned about our food and farming, we call on you to stop mergers between large agricultural mega-corporations. The proposed Bayer-Monsanto, Dow-Dupont, and ChemChina-SynGenta mergers are each anticompetitive, not in the public interest, and will not serve the public good. Your action now can protect our food, our farming, our ecosystems and our health.

It sounds like a bad dream, but it’s real. Trump wants GM giant Monsanto to merge with chemical kingpin Beyer, and has already met with the company’s bosses to make it happen! The only way to stop it is if two little-known regulators in the US and Europe stand against the deal.
The stakes are huge. The new company would control our crops from seed to harvest, locking us in the grip of a chemical farming system that is devastating our planet. But laws exist to protect us from exactly this kind of monopoly -- and a giant call to the regulators now would give them the backing they need to reject it before it’s too late!
