Dear John,

Lowe’s and Home Depot continue to sell glyphosate -- a.k.a. the active
ingredient in Bayer-Monsanto’s Roundup® -- putting millions at risk from this
toxic pesticide. Tell Lowe’s and Home Depot to stop selling cancer-causing Roundup.

Glyphosate exposure has been linked to an increased risk of cancer. Last year,
Bayer was ordered by a jury to pay $2 billion to a couple who used glyphosate on
their lawn for decades, and who both suffered from non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. There
are over 100,000 similar court cases pending.

Yet, glyphosate is still on store shelves! Right now, Roundup® can be found in
Lowe’s and Home Depot garden centers. Lowe’s and Home Depot can play a vital
role in ending the use of this toxic weedkiller, but the companies won’t do it
unless they hear from you, John.

Take Action: Ask Lowe’s and Home Depot to remove cancer-causing Roundup® from
store shelves to protect people and the planet!

affects more than 2,400 species and habitats. 93% of endangered species are at risk of being harmed or killed from
glyphosate.

Roundup kills milkweed, the only food source for monarch caterpillars. The
monarch population in North America has declined by 90% in the past 20 years
alone as the use of Roundup has skyrocketed. Monarch butterflies could vanish
within our lifetimes if we don’t take steps to protect them.

If you’re concerned about the wellbeing of butterflies, bees, and other
endangered species, then message Lowe’s and Home Depot and demand they take
Roundup® off their shelves!

Help save monarch butterflies. Message Lowe’s and Home Depot and demand they
protect our pollinators!

glyphosate from their stores and online, it would send a powerful message to
Bayer-Monsanto to phase out this harmful chemical.

Lowe’s and Home Depot’s competitor, Costco, has already removed this toxic
product. But other retail giants must act to protect our health and environment.

We know that Lowe’s and Home Depot listen to people power. In the past, they
committed to stop selling plants grown with bee-killing neonic pesticides. Now,
help push the companies to take another vital step and protect people and
endangered species from glyphosate.

We need your voice -- Urge Lowe’s and Home Depot to remove Roundup® from their
shelves immediately!
