John,

Glyphosate causes cancer -- even at exposure levels that authorities consider safe. That's the conclusion of a scientific study that's just been published in the peer-reviewed journal Environmental Health.

This is the world's most comprehensive independent animal study ever conducted on glyphosate, the world's most-used weedkiller chemical.

But the science isn’t enough. Our governments will ignore this new study if we let them, and won’t dare to confront the chemical industry lobby unless we show them that’s what we demand:

Tell every government on Earth to ban glyphosate – and let’s make Bayer-Monsanto pay for its toxic legacy!

The UN’s top cancer experts already warned us back in 2015: glyphosate causes cancer in lab animals.

This comprehensive new study, led by the Ramazzini Institute in Italy, goes even further though, showing that long-term exposure – even at low levels equivalent to the EU’s Acceptable Daily Intake (ADI) – causes early-onset leukemia in rats.

So glyphosate spin doctors can’t even say “the dose makes the poison” anymore to dismiss glyphosate cancer concerns. No more excuses.

Some governments have restricted glyphosate and glyphosate-based weedkillers – but it’s time for total bans, and this landmark cancer study could help make that happen:

Let’s tell our governments to ban glyphosate and make Bayer-Monsanto pay.

Millions of Ekō members have reached across the world to resist Bayer-Monsanto and other agrochemical giants that pump out poison for profit. We very nearly won a full ban in the European Union last year, and we’re supporting a lawsuit to make that one right.

What’s certain is that glyphosate’s days are numbered – but we must push to move our governments and get rid of this poison for good.
