Moms Across Americaでの請願

Tell the EPA To Listen to the American People, not Chemical Corporations!

Posted by · 12月 08, 2022 4:18 PM · 124 reactions

After Moms Across America filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) to the EPA for all communications between Bayer/Monsanto: memos, calls, emails, and meetings to the EPA regarding glyphosate between 2020 to the current time, we received a call back saying that the request was too large. They had "a few hundred thousand communications, and it would take them until 2024 to review" (redact) and return those documents to me. Might we please reduce the request?

A few HUNDRED THOUSAND communications just regarding glyphosate (one chemical!), just from Bayer (one company!) over two years? What could they possibly say about a chemical that is clearly unsafe? Apparently, a lot. If we assume only 200,000 communications, that means Bayer communicated with our US EPA 275 times a day!

The overwhelming number of communications shows us, the American people, the gravity of the influence the chemical corporations have over our regulatory agencies.

My response after legal counsel?

I told her that the volume of communication was exactly my concern - I believed the American public deserved to know just how much communication was and what was said. However, in consideration of timing, I will agree to narrow the request to communications, just to emails to the Pesticide Re-Registration Review Board and the Head of the EPA. And, I said, how about I make it easier for you - just send us the documents without redaction, don’t bother with that!

She balked but stated that they "have to review and redact CBI"- (Confidential Business Information) to protect the sensitive business information of the company. Then they have to go to the company and make sure they agree. I got heated. Do you know what is sensitive? My son’s health, after being exposed to glyphosate in his food. Do you know what I did not agree to? My son having the levels of glyphosate in his urine of a farmer - even though he has never touched a bottle of Roundup! Do you know what he has to live with every day while the chemical companies make profits off of poison? His whole body now has Ehler’s Danlos syndrome and Electromagnetic Sensitivity. He will likely not be able to go to college here in the USA because his immune system has been impacted by toxins like glyphosate, and he is now sensitive to wireless radiation! His whole life has been altered and affected and you are telling me you need to protect the company? When are you going to protect the people?

She explained that she is only doing her job blah blah blah...but I impressed upon her that she is there - on the INSIDE and she has a responsibility to speak up. She can speak to the Pesticide Review Board, to the Head of the EPA - she can say WE CAN DO BETTER. She has that opportunity. We are on the outside.

We are not communicating with the EPA 275 times a day.

But we can do better too. Will you speak up today and tell the EPA they need to listen to the American people and DO THEIR JOB - protect us and revoke the license of glyphosate?

Please speak up with us today - for all the children, bees, wildlife, marine life, pets, and humans on the planet that deserve a safe environment.

Thank you

Dear Michael Regan and EPA Pesticide Re-Registration Review Board,

I am appalled to learn through a Moms Across America FOIA that the chemical company Bayer has communicated a few hundred thousand times to the EPA about glyphosate over the past two years. This overwhelming amount of communication is undue influence, potentially even harassment, and is in excess. This amount of influence from private industry is pressuring the EPA to take Bayer’s desires, their profits more heavily into consideration than the desires and safety of the American people.

I am writing to request that you listen to the American people.

We have been asking you for years to stop allowing the spraying of glyphosate before harvest for any reason, as a weed killer or drying agent, specifically on food and feed crops.

Hundreds of thousands, maybe millions, of individual Americans and supporters of Moms Across America, Organic Consumers Association, Beyond Pesticides, Friends of the Earth, Center for Food Safety, Pesticide Action Network, Children’s Health Defense, and many more have asked you to revoke the license of glyphosate completely.

Glyphosate has been shown to be a carcinogen, and endocrine disruptor, causing liver and kidney disease at very low levels of exposure, to androgenize baby girls and damage the sperm of males.

Your failure to listen to us and protect the American people is killing us, our pets, soil quality, wildlife, and marine life.

You can right this wrong.

You can revoke the license of glyphosate.

Now.

Signed,

Your bosses,

The American Tax Payer

食品生産者への公開書簡：FDAよりも優れた仕事をする必要があります！

ポストするブログによって・6月 08, 2020 10:14 AM・ 1反応

親愛なる食品生産者、

パンデミック、経済の不確実性、健康的な食品への不平等なアクセスの継続的な影響の中で、私たちは食料供給においてより多くの完全性と安全性を必要としています。失業や保険がない場合はいつでも、多くの家族が食物アレルギー反応中に救急車を呼んだり病院で治療を受けたりする可能性が低くなり、死亡のリスクが高まります。

最近の USDAによる決定 GMO、CRISPR、遺伝子編集、または製薬および工業用化学物質生産（PMPI）プラントを規制しないことは私たちに悲惨な懸念。

加えて FDAの発表ヒマワリやカノーラオイルなどのCOVID- 19の状況の間に一時的であっても、食品会社が食品成分を切り替えることができるようにすると、生命を脅かすアレルギー性の健康に即座に影響を与える可能性があります。ラベルのない成分を許可すると、それらが何であれ、国内および国際的な食品供給の長期的な完全性が破壊されます。

私たちの政府は、食糧供給を規制し、アメリカ人と世界中の人々の健康を保護することに失敗しました。食料生産者が行動を起こさなければ、私たちの健康、食料供給の完全性、そして国際貿易関係が脅かされるでしょう。この状況を是正するために、皆様のご協力をお願いいたします。

これは、食品生産者がFDAよりも優れた業績を上げる時期す。なぜなら、人々は誰が正しいことをしたかを知るだけでなく、それが正しいことだからです。

食品生産者には、以下の要求とあなたの会社のコミットメントに関して、公の声明を発表し、アメリカ全土のママに応答するようお願いします。

バイエル、先天性欠損症、有毒ベビーフード

数週間前、速報ニュースでは、離乳食の95％が検査した、Healthy Babies Bright Future（HBBF）による168サンプルには、重金属が含まれていることがわかりました。 4のうち1には、ヒ素、カドミウム、鉛、水銀のすべての4の重金属が含まれていました。ニュースを作らなかったのはなぜだった。そして、赤ちゃんのこの考えられない中毒をどのように止めることができますか。それからマウイの住民のニュース化学物質への暴露と先天性欠損症でモンサントを訴えた。繰り返しますが、私たちの国の未来である私たちの赤ちゃんは化学会社に傷つけられていますが、私たちの政府はバイエル/モンサントがこれらの悲劇の責任を負うことを拒否しています。
