Home Depot: Do the Right Thing and Dump Monsanto!

Home Depot: Do the Right Thing and Dump Monsanto!

Monsanto's top retail product is RoundUp, a broad-spectrum herbicide. Millions of pounds of RoundUp are used every year on U.S. gardens, lawns and farms.

Home Depot is a major vendor of RoundUp.

RoundUp has been linked to numerous environmental and human health problems, including:

* Increased risks of the cancer non-Hodgkin's lymphoma
* Miscarriages
* Attention deficit disorder
* Reduced production of sex hormones
* Genetic damage and damage to the immune system in fish, and genetic damage and abnormal development in frogs

To sign a petition asking Home Depot to dump RoundUp from its inventory, click the link below.
