The evidence about glyphosate just keeps growing, friend.

A recent study from the National Institutes of Health has found “novel evidence regarding the carcinogenic potential of glyphosate.” Their research suggests that “glyphosate could confer genotoxic or selective effects,” meaning that glyphosate may damage DNA, increasing cancer risks.

Citing this work, a coalition of nonprofits and farmworkers has filed a petition urging the EPA to finally ban cancer-linked glyphosate. But we know it’s going to take a lot more to finally get the EPA to take action.

Glyphosate is the most widely used pesticide in the U.S., and Bayer-Monsanto has spent millions of dollars to spread misinformation and keep glyphosate on the market.

We need your help to fight back. If you support further research and advocacy on toxic pesticides, complete our short survey to help us formulate our plans:
