GREAT, AMAZING, FANTASTIC, WONDROUS NEWS!

Dewayne "Lee" Johnson, a school pesticide applicator with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, WINS his lawsuit against Monsanto! The jury (God Bless them) awarded Johnson 289.2 million dollars! 4000 other plaintiffs are waiting to sue Monsanto and 10,0000 are expected by the end of the year. Surely this decision has Bayer, who now owns Monsanto, reconsidering whether or not to continue to sell glyphosate-based products.

This is a huge win for humanity! Corporations around the world now get that they must take responsibility for the impact of their products! 

Watch the verdict here: 

US Court demands that the EPA must ban chlorpyrifos in 60 days! Chlorpyrifos, a chemical sprayed on food crops, is a known neurotoxin, especially to children, and was supposed to be banned last year. But the ban was revoked by the current administration. Coincidentally, the ban dismissal was enacted after Trump held a meeting with the CEO of Dow, the manufacturers of the chemical, who gave a 1.2 million dollar donation to his campaign. At Moms Across America, we believe that no matter who we vote for, what our political inclinations are, that every public figure has a responsibility to protect our children. This behavior is reprehensible, and we are glad that the courts have the power to reverse that decision and reinstate the ban. We simply cannot allow big business to harm our little kids.

Transcripts of the closing arguments here.

Johnson's lawyer's slides here.

Also, in the news is Monsanto on trial and Robert F. Kennedy Jr - one of the lawyers suing Monsanto for the link to Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Watch his stellar interview here.

We are so glad he addressed all the health issues we moms have been talking about for years now - and that the media is covering this issue!!!!

Yesterday was a fascinating, infuriating, inspiring, and extremely complicated day. The closing statements of the Johnson v Monsanto trial were the lawyers final chance to persuade the jury to either hold Monsanto accountable for not labeling their product as a carcinogen ( leading to John's non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma) or believe the chemical company when they say their products are safe. Watch the NBC news coverage which includes  Zen Honeycutt of Moms Across America!

In the packed San Franciso courtroom, Johnson's lawyer, Brent Wisner did an excellent job of showing that:

1. Monsanto's Roundup and RangerPro can promote cancer and cause tumor growth.
   
   
2. Monsanto knew this well before Johnson called them to ask if exposure could be connected to his lesions...and yet the doctor responsible failed to return his call.
   
   
3. Monsanto failed to warn consumers with label or safety precautions.

To see some of the choice soundbites from the trial, follow Zen on Twitter:

The EPA still has yet to deliver their decision on whether to renew glyphosate for another 15 years or revoke its license. They have been "reviewing" glyphosate for over 10 years.

We continue to remind the EPA of their responsibility to include real science and to protect people and animals, not the profits of the corporations. Here is a recent letter to the EPA. Feel free to use the links to tell your local officials that they need to discontinue the use of glyphosate herbicides.

Dear EPA Pesticide Review Board,

In light of recent studies, we are looking forward to your review of glyphosate-based herbicides (GBH) resulting in the refusal of the license of glyphosate.

韓国人は日本と米国のグループと協力してGMOの健康リスク意識を高める

Zen Honeycutt著、ママズアクロスアメリカ

7月 19, 2018韓国のソウルで初めて、韓国人はGMOラベリングシステムを知る消費者の権利に関する三国間韓米日本シンポジウムを主催しました。草の根の指導者、教授、食品生産者、関係する市民、国会議員を含む200人以上が集まり、GMOとGMOラベリングの健康リスクについて話し合った。韓国には懸念すべき正当理由があります。韓国は人間が消費するGMOの世界最大の輸入国であり、市民の健康状態は急上昇しています。

South Korea has the highest recorded rates of pervasive developmental delays in the world. South Korea’s rates of autism are also extremely high, the last reported rates were 2 X higher than US autism rates in 2012. The rates of both autism and pervasive development delays correlate with the high amounts of agrochemicals used per unit in the relatively small countries of Japan and South Korea. The ingestion of chemicals due to agrochemical farming has not been of concern for the past two decades, but speakers at the conference discussed studies released over the past 5 years that show serious harm from GMOs and the most widely used glyphosate herbicides in the world. 80% of GMOs are engineered to withstand Monsanto’s flagship Roundup product (glyphosate herbicide), which is now used generically in over 750 brands around the world and has been linked to cancer, liver disease, そして many health risks. の destruction of gut bacteria, which glyphosate has been shown to cause, has been linked to autism-like symptoms in rats. Reproductive changes due to the hormonal impact of glyphosate can also lead to developmental delays. New studies showing glyphosate herbicides' impact on the second generation of female rats, impacting fertility, point to great concern regarding the possible link to Korea's low birth rate as well.

ミレニアルアピール

Millennials who’ve watched Cowspiracy, or are health conscious and motivated to explore a vegetarian or vegan lifestyle, are targeted to save the planet by eating this "low-impact” food. Designed to convert meat eaters to a “plant based” ⁱ burger, it can now be ordered as a meat alternative at restaurants in many cities around the US. But, what is The Impossible Burger made of?

Nowhere do they claim that Impossible Burger ingredients are USDA Certified Organic. One look at the Impossible Burger package ingredients list tells any well-educated eater why: wheat, potato proteins, coconut oil, “other nutrients”, natural flavors and 2% or less of the following: leghemoglobin (soy), yeast extract, salt, soy protein isolate, konjac gum, xanthan gum, thiamin (vitamin B1), zinc, niacin, vitamin B6, riboflavin (vitamin B2), and vitamin B12. Many ingredients such as soy, potatoes, and several others, are genetically engineered (GMO) in a lab. GMO food products in the US today require no package label to identify them.

親愛なる友人、

モンサント対学校のグラウンドキーパーが癌で亡くなった場合の「世紀のモンサント裁判」冒頭陳述の私の印象は次のとおりです（昨日サンフランシスコで）。

それは、絶対に静かにじっと座っていなければならないという困難な時期と混ざり合った、ハイドラマの思い出に残る日でした（私にとっては簡単ではありませんでした）。部屋はジャーナリストや記者、あらゆる言葉を聞いている専門の科学的および医学的目撃者、そこで観察する好奇心旺盛な弁護士、癌の犠牲者の支持的で愛情深い家族、そしてバウム、ヘドランド、アソシエイツのロバートF.ケネディジュニアでいっぱいでした法律事務所、最前列を埋めます。右側のフロントテーブルには、5人のモンサントの弁護士がいました。

甘く、最前列の後ろの列にハンサムなティーンエイジャーがいました。彼は、ゴージャスなケネディの髪の毛とケネディの約束と心を持った、ジュニアの息子であるRFKのように見えました。彼はケネディの遺産を引き継ぐかもしれないと私は信じています。

法廷での撮影は許可されておらず、法廷テレビの視聴には500ドルかかるため、ホールで私たちに会ったカメラの壁がありました（！）。

After getting up at 4 a.m. to drive to SF, with Kat Furey and Rouhi Akbari thru thick traffic, it was hard for me to sit from 9:30 to 4. We had 2 5-minute breaks and 1½ hours for a wonderful GF SF lunch at Sweet Maple. I am so glad that I was able to go to this "Trial of the Century."

何日にもわたるハイドラマと退屈に耐え、じっと座って耳を傾けなければならない陪審員には申し訳ありませんでした。真のヒーロー。

7月 7, 2018の土曜日は、カリフォルニアのグリホサートを含むすべての製品が、CA Prop 65発がん性物質リストに記載されているため、発がん性物質として警告ラベルが付けられることになっていた日でした。 モンサントは、リストにある化学物質にラベルを付けるという30年の慣行を訴え、一時的に停止しました。それでも...裁判官は、グリホサートを小道具65発がん物質リストに残すことに同意しました。それで彼はグリホサートが有害であることを認めます...しかし大衆は知る必要はありませんか？

誰もが知っておく価値があると思います！そして、これらの製品は一般に販売されるべきではありません！

お父さん、私たちはあなたが必要です！

By Mike Gioscia of www.TheGreenDad.com

Mike and his family are featured in the new movie Secret Ingredients.

なじみのある道を進んでいたのですが、知らなかったのです。私の息子が数年前に自閉症スペクトラム（PDD-NOS）で診断されたと、私は妻にこれを述べました： '私たちは人々に話す必要はありません。言う必要はありません 自閉症。彼にブランドを付ける必要はありません。彼が持っていると言うことができます… いくつかの困難.

Yup. I said it. Denial? Is that what it is dad? A feeling of failure? My kid can’t have anything wrong with him! What would that say about me?!

Well, I snapped out of my selfish funk pretty quick, and I implore you, dad, to do the same. We need you out here. Your kid needs you, more than anything else you’ve got going on. Forget the office. The boat. The golf. The trips. Whatever it is that’s pulling you away from dealing. Deal! C’mon dad, we need you!
