The EPA has just extended their deadline on atrazine so that more Americans can weigh in on this toxic pesticide, friend! We now have 3 more days to make our voices heard! Right now, millions of Americans are at risk of drinking atrazine, a toxic pesticide that has been linked to serious health risks like cancer, shorter pregnancy and hormone disruption. Remember: Atrazine is such a powerful hormone disruptor, it can even turn male frogs into female frogs! The EPA is about to give the pesticide industry the green light to keep spraying, but the EPA is asking to hear from the public on atrazine by February 19 before making its final decision on atrazine. We need to overwhelm the agency with more than 100,000 comments before the deadline if we’re going to force it to stand up for human health over pesticide industry profits, but we’re 38,738 names short! Can we count on you to join us?

Click here to add your name to EWG’s petition calling on the EPA to BAN hormone-disrupting atrazine! More than 70 million pounds of atrazine are dumped on American farmland each year, running off into the rivers, lakes and streams we rely on for drinking water. We need the EPA to stand up for the environment and our health, but we only have until February 19 to make our voices heard. TAKE ACTION: Stand up for clean water and tell the EPA to BAN atrazine! Thanks for standing with us, friend. Helen Lucey
