<P>There are an estimated 385 million cases of acute pesticide
poisonings each year.</P>
<P>That means <STRONG>about 44% of farmers and agricultural workers
around the world are poisoned annually.</STRONG> And those numbers
could rise if we don’t stop Bayer’s latest power grab.</P>
<P>Right now, <STRONG>the UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO)
is trying to create a formal partnership with CropLife International
-- the mega lobbying group that represents Bayer, Cargill, Syngenta
and over 300 other pesticide companies.</STRONG></P>
<P>Allies tell us that an announcement of the deal can come as early
as this month unless we stop this #ToxicAlliance.</P>

the petition demanding that FAO stop the #ToxicAlliance with
CropLife.</A></P>
<P>CropLife’s sole purpose is to advocate for the use of its
members’ products — which are hazardous pesticides and genetically
modified seeds. For decades, <STRONG>these products have locked
farmers into ever-escalating pesticide use</STRONG>, and
systematically undermined the rights and welfare of the majority of
the world’s food producers.</P>
<P>Vladimir, unless we stop this #ToxicAlliance, <STRONG>the
companies that are poisoning farmers worldwide will get
unprecedented access to power</STRONG> at the United Nations.</P>

<P><STRONG>SumOfUs members have worked for years to rid fields and
gardens of pesticides</STRONG> -- from pushing for bans on neonics
to getting glyphosate off store shelves. We can’t let the
manufacturers of these harmful poisons lobby their way to greater
power.</P>
<P>Instead of partnering with CropLife, <STRONG>FAO should support
people-led, sustainable farming that mitigates climate change and
reduces world hunger. </STRONG></P><!-- ak.wysiwyg=code --><IMG
