Petition - It's Time to Get Rid of Roundup!

The World Health Organization's International Agency for Research on Cancer found that glyphosate, commonly sold as Roundup, is a “probable human carcinogen."

This is serious, as hundreds of millions of pounds of this herbicide are used on farmland across America every year, and the U.S. Geological Survey has detected glyphosate in rain, streams and air near agricultural areas.

Americans are exposed to this “probable human carcinogen” in their food, air and water every day, and the EPA and FDA are not doing enough to protect us from these exposures and potential health problems.

Sign the petition below to urge EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy and FDA Commissioner Margaret Hamburg to end the use of Roundup!
