Got Monsanto's Glyphosate in Your Lunch?


Captura de pantalla_2018- 02-15 _at_8. 47.33 _AM.png

 New test results show the presence of Glyphosate, a proven neurotoxin and the declared active chemical in Monsanto’s Roundup, to be contaminating more and more American foods, many considered fit for a “healthy” lunch. Instead, we are finding that these foods are likely contributing to poor mental and physical health.

Batch testing of popular almond milk (1), vegetarian burgers (2), and various breads (3), including organic, gluten free and whole wheat breads, revealed up to 140.98 ppb. Individual brand testing of Skippy’s “100% Natural” peanut butter and Lipton’s “100% Natural” Mint and Green tea up to 208.29 ppb of glyphosate herbicides.

Pesticides Proven to Change the Taste of Wines

New Discoveries
Press Release

2018

The discoveries by J Douzelet & GE Séralini:

A very first description of the tastes of 11 pesticides is proposed. They are detected first in water, diluted freshly at the levels found in wines, by 36 professionals from wine or cooking in 195 blind tests at different periods.

They are the most frequently found pesticides in wines in our experiment. Some animals can detect pesticides and change their behavior in response. In order to find out if humans can also detect pesticides by their taste in wines, a three-step experiment was conducted.

Moms Take on Monsanto

Monsanto.jpgenero 31, 2018 Zen Honeycutt and Anne Temple of Moms Across America attended the Monsanto Shareholder meeting held at their corporate headquarters in St. Louis.

Zen represented John Harrington of Harrington Investments and presented a three minute presentation for the forming of  a Human Rights Committee.  Unfortunately the vote was taken before Zen spoke on behalf of the proxy.  A document was presented to the board and Executive Team listing just some of the examples of 11 categories of crimes against humanity attributed to Monsanto's products.  You can read that document here.

Below is Zen's presentation for the forming of a Human Rights Committee.

Documento sobre violaciones de derechos humanos enviado a Monsanto

PREPARADO PARA LA 2018 REUNIÓN DE LA JUNTA DE MONSANTO

VIOLACIÓNES DE DERECHOS HUMANOS

ATRIBUIBLE A LOS PRODUCTOS DE MONSANTO

 

Captura de pantalla_2018- 01-31 _at_8. 58.42 _AM.png

Datos compilados por miembros del Equipo del Tribunal de Monsanto, Navdanya, Moms Across America y ciudadanos preocupados de los EE. UU.

 

Introducción

Sostenemos que Monsanto, ante todo una empresa química, se equivoca al pensar que es su trabajo "Alimentar al mundo". El trabajo de Monsanto es asegurarse de que los productos químicos que venden sean seguros y efectivos. O, para redirigir sus recursos al negocio, lo que no incluye el uso de productos químicos tóxicos que pueden dañar a los humanos, la vida silvestre, el ganado, el suelo y el suministro de agua. Monsanto tiene la responsabilidad de mantener su compromiso con la seguridad e integridad de los productos formando un comité para investigar si se han producido violaciones de derechos humanos debido a sus productos y prácticas comerciales.

Millones de personas en todo el mundo están trabajando para reclamar su derecho básico de libertad de semillas, para proteger la salud y los derechos humanos y para promover la agricultura orgánica y la agroecología libres de veneno. Hacemos un llamado a Monsanto Company para garantizar que sus violaciones de derechos humanos reconocidas mundialmente cesen y desistan.

Amicus Brief Filed in Support of OEHHA and Prop 65 listing of Glyphosate

prop-65-img.jpgenero 26, 2018- Moms Across America and National Health Federation, with  Tips & Associates, filed an Amicus Brief, which is a friendly filing in support for California State Office of Environmental Health Hazards Assessment agency (OEHHA) & their Prop 65 State Toxics List AND the addition of glyphosate to the List, after Monsanto and 11 State Attorneys General  moved to get rid of Prop 65 and the Listing ENTIRELY.

What is an amicus brief?

Amicus briefs are legal documents filed in appellate court cases by non-litigants with a strong interest in the subject matter. The briefs advise the court of relevant, additional information or arguments that the court might wish to consider.

Why would an amicus brief be filed?

Monsanto has repeatedly sued the CA EPA's OEHHA, to remove glyphosate from the Prop 65 carcinogen list. This time they "won the support of 11 states to sue OEHHA." This was coincidentally after Moms Across America initiated a "50 States Ask Governors to Ban Glyphosate" campaign.

Screen_Shot_2017-11-05_at_10.04.16_AM.pngThe 11 states who join Monsanto in this audacious lawsuit against OEHHA, our state's health hazard assessment agency,  are supporting the federal lawsuit, Monsanto, the National Association of Wheat Growers and other agricultural groups which was filed in noviembre 2017, to stop California from becoming the first US State to require product containing glyphosate carry warning labels.

 

OEHHA legally and rightfully placed glyphosate on the list after the International Agency Research for Cancer (IARC) classified glyphosate a probable carcinogen in May of 2015. Glyphosate is the declared active chemical ingredient in Roundup and over 700 other glyphosate-based herbicides, the most widely used type of herbicide in the world.

Why would Monsanto want glyphosate off the Prop 65 list?

El complot para acabar con IARC y continuar envenenando a nosotros debe ser detenido

Screen_Shot_2018-01-26_at_12.53.08_PM.png¿Sabías que ... a pesar de que Se espera que 1 de 2 hombres y 1 de 3 mujeres en Estados Unidos contraigan cáncer, un grupo de miembros del Congreso de los EE. UU. que forman parte del Comité de Ciencia, Espacio y Tecnología de la Cámara de Representantes, amenazaron con desmantelar y desmantelar el Organismo Científico Independiente de la Organización Mundial de la Salud, el Agencia internacional de investigación de Cáncer (IARC)

 

El desembolso de fondos de EE. UU. Podría tener el impacto de desmantelar todo este cuerpo que sirve al mundo entero en temas de cncer, como parte de la Organización Mundial de la Salud.

Arsénico y metales pesados encontrados en herbicidas rociados en cultivos alimentarios

Shocking news.

Seralini and Team, www.criigen.org, have just published a new paper revealing the discovery of the known lethal poison arsenic and heavy metals in Roundup and most of the glyphosate-based herbicides tested.Screen_Shot_2018-01-07_at_11.27.48_PM.png

As a mother who has unknowingly fed my children Roundup sprayed food for most of their lifetimes, I am outraged. Are these poisons the reason for my children numerous and life-threatening health issues? How could the chemical companies NOT know that there is arsenic in their products? What about the EPA? How could they possibly say they are protecting us when they allow these poisons to be sprayed on our food crops?

50 States Ask Governors to BAN Glyphosate

 

FirstState.jpg

Mission Viejo, CA - Moms Across America announces a nationwide campaign to ban glyphosate herbicides in all fifty of the United States. Support from Organic Consumers Association, Institute for Responsible Technology and Thinking Moms Revolution, with millions of supporters collectively, urge state governors to protect their residents and children. 

“European Member states, after considering volumes of scientific studies and numerous testimonies by lawyers and researchers, have refused to renew the license for glyphosate. If it is not safe for Europeans, and Malta, Sri Lanka, The Netherlands, and Argentina who have banned glyphosate, then we do not want glyphosate in our United States. We urge our governors to take bold steps like the Governor of Arkansas and Missouri did in banning Dicamba, and ban glyphosate herbicides and toxic chemicals immediately.”- Zen Honeycutt, Executive Director of Moms Across America
