We could see another decade of Bayer-Monsanto’s poison sprayed on our fields and our food. But we have a plan to stop it – we just need your help. Germany has already decided to ban glyphosate, and as a huge, influential country could help secure an EU-wide ban too. But Bayer is a German company – and the government has struck a behind-the-scenes deal to protect its global profits. The good news is we have a real lever to push: the minister who will cast Germany’s vote was elected from the Green Party! If we show him he’s toast if he gives in to giant pesticide companies, we have a real chance of spurring him into action. If everyone reading this chips in the cost of a coffee, we’ll launch an all-out campaign surge – plastering his hometown with posters calling out Germany’s double standards, placing ads in major newspapers, and running polls to show massive public support for an EU ban. We can still win this and rid Europe of glyphosate forever. Germany’s vote is set to tip the balance, but we have to move fast – there’s a crucial meeting in just a few weeks. Can you chip in now? [Donate $3]( another amount]( Bayer-Monsanto has been allowed to peddle its poison for so long that it’s literally everywhere – our parks, our fields, our food, even our urine. We need to be urgently cleaning up this toxic legacy, not adding to it. Germany is key to this, but its agriculture ministry is hesitating – happy to settle for protecting German citizens with a national ban while the rest of Europe continues to suffer. That’s why it’s so important we step up now and make sure Germany votes against glyphosate reapproval. People in Germany are wildly supportive of an EU-wide ban – and if we can ramp up the pressure to make this a hot issue at home, we could prompt the government into action. Can you donate today to help ban glyphosate forever?
