The same day California banned chlorpyrifos, the main manufacturer of the brain-damaging pesticide announced it will stop selling it to farmers. Now even Corteva is doing more to protect your health than Trump's EPA.

BREAKING: Dow Chemical To Stop Chlorpyrifos Sales!

Help EWG continue the fight against toxic pesticides, like chlorpyrifos. Complete our survey before midnight tonight!

Amazing, friend!

The same day California banned chlorpyrifos, the main manufacturer of the brain-damaging pesticide announced it will stop selling it to farmers.

Corteva, once part of Dow Chemical, is the largest producer of chlorpyrifos in the country. Chlorpyrifos has been linked to brain and nervous system damage in kids, even at incredibly low doses. Despite the risks, Trump’s EPA aborted a scheduled nationwide ban in 2017 shortly after meeting with Dow’s CEO.

Now even Corteva is doing more to protect your health than Trump’s EPA.

But EWG will never stop fighting for your health. We’re continuing our fight to get dangerous pesticides like chlorpyrifos, glyphosate and neonics out of our food and our environment. We need to know you’re still with us in this fight, friend.

Can we count on you to complete our urgent survey on pesticides before 11:59 p.m. tonight?

Are you outraged that the EPA has failed to take action on brain-damaging chlorpyrifos?

YES
 
NO

Thanks for your feedback, friend.
