Ban Dangerous Pesticides in Cornwall

Please ban the spraying of Monsanto's Roundup and other glyphosate herbicides on our streets and parks.

Why is this important?

The use of glyphosates has already been banned or restricted in 8 countries. It is not acceptable that ourselves, our children and the animals we share our community with are being routinely exposed to these chemicals whether we like it or not.

This is a matter of great importance for those of us who care about each other's health and the health of our children, our cats, our dogs and all the flora and fauna of this county.

Hi everyone
Thanks for the support.
I have contacted my local councillor who is very helpful. I am waiting for her to report back telling me how widespread glyphosate use is in Cornwall. I think this would be helpful info for planning our future activities such as public demos or street stalls for people to collect signatures.
