*[Enwl-eng] Glyphosate

Glyphosate is a DNA destroyer, explosive new research reveals.


                        Glyphosate is a DNA destroyer, explosive new 
research reveals. But if these results aren’t published soon -- our 
governments could approve Monsanto’s poison again. If enough of us donate 
now, we can publish the results far and wide -- and have our best chance to 
stop glyphosate for good. Can you help?

            The EU is speeding towards re-approving toxic glyphosate based 
on cherry-picked, industry-funded studies. Other governments are doing the 
same. It’s a disaster.

            But independent scientists just finished a first-of-its-kind 
study that shows how glyphosate damages DNA in internal organs.

            This game-changing study is ready, but its authors have come to 
us asking if we can pay for it to be published in top publicly-accessible 
journals. That way, government officials can’t just turn a blind eye to it, 
like Bayer’s lobbyists would want them to.

            This could get glyphosate banned.

            If enough members like you chip in just $3, they can submit it 
to the journals today -- but we need to be quick. Every day we wait, farmers 
and gardeners keep spraying this poison with abandon on our fields and 
playgrounds. Are you in?

            Pesticide companies need to prove that their products are safe. 
In many places, governments have to ban chemicals if new, trustworthy data 
says there’s a problem.

            For over 40 years, industry-funded researchers have focused on 
bone marrow tests to prove that glyphosate pesticides are fine. “Glyphosate’s 
safe, look at our data” they’d say -- and governments ate it up. But now 
this new study shows that glyphosate may not harm bone marrow, but it 
ravages other organs instead.

            When this gets out in top scientific journals, Bayer can kiss 
their cosy consensus with health authorities goodbye. And if that doesn’t do 
it -- we can sue the authorities to get a move on.

            For all we know, Bayer-Monsanto has done exactly the same 
research, and just buried the data to protect their profits. Internal 
Monsanto emails, released during a US lawsuit recently, show bosses knew 
years ago that the company had “potential vulnerabilities” that could be 
uncovered one day.

            We almost succeeded in getting glyphosate banned in Europe four 
years ago -- but the might of pesticide industry lobbying was simply too 
much. Our fields, our food -- even our bodies are contaminated with the 
stuff.

            This is our chance to ban glyphosate in the EU, and around the 
world. Every extra money we raise will power our campaigning against the 
pesticide industry -- and fight for bans across the world. This study -- if 
we can help spread it far and wide -- could break Bayer’s spell over our 
regulators, and end the age of glyphosate.
