Your Signature is Needed: Vulnerable monarch caterpillars are losing their only food source

Bayer-Monsanto has been selling their customers LIES. Tell Bayer-Monsanto to stop selling toxic Roundup NOW! [Sign the petition >>]( Glyphosate, a key ingredient in Bayer-Monsanto’s Roundup, has been WREAKING HAVOC on our health and contributing to monarch declines for decades! Bayer-Monsanto manipulated science and lied to the public so it could keep selling a pesticide it KNEW WASN’T SAFE! Roundup is WIPING OUT milkweed -- a vital plant that monarchs rely on for reproduction and as a sole source of nutrition for caterpillars. Over the last 20 years, 850 million milkweed plants have VANISHED. Without it, baby caterpillars suffer from starvation and adult monarchs have nowhere to lay their eggs! We can’t stand by and let them get away with this, Friend. [Please, will you stand with us and demand that Bayer-Monsanto STOPS producing this BUTTERFLY-HARMING product before it’s too late? >>]( [SIGN THE PETITION]( Monarchs are currently in their wintering grounds in Mexico. Come spring, they’ll begin their epic 2,500-mile migration back north -- but we could see less of these colorful creatures return as their dwindling numbers continue to SPIRAL. It’s heartbreaking to imagine a world without monarch butterflies fluttering around in our backyards with their vibrant orange and black wings. But aside from their epic beauty, they are also essential pollinators that our ecosystems rely on. Without milkweed, monarch caterpillars’ ONLY FOOD SOURCE, there would be NO CHANCE OF SURVIVAL for vulnerable monarchs! Yet Bayer-Monsanto continues to profit off glyphosate -- at the expense of monarchs, the planet, and human health! In fact, a study found glyphosate in more than 80% of tested people, including CHILDREN! We can’t stand by while monarchs die, people are exposed to cancer-linked pesticides, and Bayer-Monsanto gets richer in the meantime. [Please, Friend sign your name now to defend monarchs, people, and the planet! >>]( [SIGN THE PETITION]( Thank you for taking urgent action!
