EWG

This is incredible, friend.

More than 11,000 supporters have signed EWG’s petition urging the EPA to BAN atrazine. But I still don’t see your name, and there are only 2 days left until the EPA’s comment period closes, on October 7.

Click here to add your name and urge the EPA to protect our health from hormone-disrupting atrazine!

More than 43 million Americans are in danger of drinking endocrine-disrupting atrazine in their water, even when scientists have said the acceptable levels should be zero.

Help us reach our goal of 50,000 signatures – please stand up for your health and urge the EPA to BAN hormone-disrupting atrazine today!

Thanks for taking action, friend.

Dear friend,

This is our chance!

The EPA has opened a comment period asking the public to weigh in on endocrine-disrupting atrazine. But the pesticide industry and 92 members of Congress are pushing the agency to give Big Ag the green light to keep recklessly spraying this hazardous pesticide.

EWG is fighting to BAN hormone-disrupting pesticides like atrazine for good. Can we count on you to join us?

Right now, more than 43 million Americans are in danger of drinking water contaminated with atrazine. This toxic pesticide has been linked to serious health risks like cancer, hormone disruption and harm to the developing fetus. It is such a potent endocrine disruptor, it can change frogs’ reproductive organs!

Despite being banned in Europe, atrazine remains one of the most widely used pesticides in the U.S., with more than 70 million pounds applied annually. It’s outrageous!

We need a tidal wave of more than 50,000 comments to combat Big Ag’s relentless lobbying. But the EPA’s comment period closes on October 7, so we don’t have much time.

Click here to add your name to EWG’s petition calling on the EPA to BAN hormone-disrupting atrazine once and for all.

The science leaves us with no doubt that ANY amount of atrazine in the water is too much. It’s time for the EPA to listen to research and stop using half-measures to appeal to industry.

Stand up for clean water and tell the EPA to BAN atrazine!

TAKE ACTION

Thanks for standing with us, friend.
