Tell EPA: Say no to "Agent Orange" Corn and toxic pesticides on our food

Ready for what’s next from Dow Chemicals? GE crops modified to be resistant to the herbicide that’s a main ingredient in Agent Orange!

The herbicide, 2,4-D, is linked to cancer, reproductive problems, and Parkinson’s and is banned entirely in parts of Canada and Europe. And yet the USDA seems ready to approve the new GMO Corn and Soybeans, unleashing a major increase in the use of 2,4-D.1

Now, the EPA is considering stepping in to stop or restrict the application of 2,4-D, which would be a major blow to Dow’s Agent Orange veggies. Can you urge EPA to reject Dow’s plans to spray this incredibly toxic herbicide?

Tell the EPA: Keep Agent Orange off our food! Submit a public comment now.
