This time of year I feel devastated when I see the shelves bursting with rows and rows of Roundup W**d Killer at the store.
Even though Roundup is strongly linked to cancer, Roundup has NOT been banned.
It continues to be used at parks, playgrounds, and by homeowners everywhere.
Roundup doesn’t necessarily stay where you spray it. It can drift through the air or get into groundwater.
This is part of the reason why some organic food is contaminated with it, even though it’s not allowed to be used on organic crops.
This is compounded by the fact that this chemical is also sprayed on 80% of non-organic crops in this country.
It is now so rampant in our environment that a lot of our food has this cancerous chemical in it.
Tests have found it in honey, cereal, meat, drinking water, beans, hummus, breast milk, infant formula, beer, wine, chips, cookies… the list goes on.
Every time you buy Roundup, you are contributing to this problem.
You are also helping to fund the company (Bayer) who makes this hazardous w**d killer.
This isn’t going to change overnight...
But we would send a BIG MESSAGE if we all stopped buying Roundup.
Look for natural and organic alternatives in your garden center, and leave the Roundup on the shelf! There are many alternatives available that are made with non-synthetic and organic ingredients.
Tag your friends below and ask them to stop buying Roundup too!
