i hesitated to post this, as it is not directly related to birds. I decided that I would because birds are harmed by this chemical, and are currently facing tremendous threats to their well-being.

Spread The Word and Sign On by COB, Monday, March 30,
To Stop Secrecy of Pesticide Hazards!Â
Â
Dear Carol Joan,
Â
We invite you to sign on to the attached statement on the upcoming U.S. Supreme Court case in which Monsanto/Bayer is seeking to overturn over $10 billion in jury verdicts and settlements and stop future litigation on their failure to warn about the potential cancer effects of glyphosate/RoundupTM. If Monsanto/Bayer wins, chemical companies will be able to legally withhold information on their pesticide product hazards. Â
 Â
>> Click here to take a stand for justice and sign on!  Â
Â
With weak federal pesticide law, and ongoing deregulation and dismantling of regulatory agencies, accountability in the courts is the last backstop for warning people about pesticide product hazards—creating an important degree of accountability and safety. Â
Â
For background on the case, please see Monsanto Brief Introduced as U.S. Supreme Court Considers Liability Immunity for Pesticide Manufacturers. Â
Â
We are circulating this statement to express a united front against the disregard that chemical companies supporting this case have for human life and a sustainable environment. While there are several amicus briefs being filed by various groups, space to join those briefs is extremely limited due to the permitted word count. As an alternative and to amplify our voice, we will distribute this sign-on document to the media. Â
Â
Additionally, if you would like to submit a one or two-sentence statement, please send it to <info...>, and we will post it along with this document.  Â
Â
Please circulate this invitation to organizations, companies, and institutions you think may be interested. Â
Â
Thank you for your continuous support and commitment to creating a world free of toxic pesticides and protective of health and the environment.Â

Tribute to Farmworkers; Statement on Survivors of Sexual Abuse from Beyond Pesticides' board and staff Like many who have worked in support of the United Farm Workers (UFW) for decades to advance humane and sustainable working conditions—including safety from toxic pesticides, a living wage, and access to health care—for farmworkers who cultivate and harvest the nation’s food, we are deeply troubled by the report of abuse by co-founder and president of the union, Cesar Chavez. The staff and board of Beyond Pesticides support and extend a deep sense of empathy to the survivors, and echo the words of Dolores Huerta, a co-founder and tireless leader of the UFW, in honoring the courage of these women. Please click here or the title above to read the full statement. Â
