Tell the EPA: BAN Parkinson’s-Linked Pesticide!
TAKE ACTION

We urgently need your help, friend.
The EPA has just announced it intends to let Big Ag keep spraying paraquat, a pesticide linked to Parkinson’s disease and banned in more than 50 countries!
We cannot let that happen.
Syngenta, paraquat’s primary manufacturer, has been pressuring the EPA for years to ignore scientific studies on paraquat’s health risks. In the words of one former EPA employee, the EPA has been “captured” by the pesticide industry.
It will take a tidal wave of grassroots support to get the EPA to listen to the science, but we know it can be done because we’ve done it before. Please join us today.
TAKE ACTION

Our investigative arm, The New Lede, has uncovered hundreds of corporate documents exposing Syngenta’s decades-long campaign to discredit scientific studies and control EPA policy. Meanwhile, cases of Parkinson’s disease have more than doubled since 1990 and thousands are now suing Syngenta, alleging paraquat exposure led to their Parkinson’s.
Join us in telling the EPA: Enough is enough! It’s time to protect our health, not the pesticide industry's profits. Together, we can make our voices heard.
