A 2009 study found that Americans annually dump about 100 million pounds of glyphosate, the key ingredient in Monsanto’s Roundup herbicide, on their lawns and gardens.
A lot has happened since 2009, so that number is probably much higher — and about to get even higher yet, if Scott’s goes through with its plan to sell Roundup-Ready grass seed, for retail and commercial use.
Studies abound linking glyphosate to human diseases and the destruction of pollinators and their habitats.
Walmart, Lowe’s and Home Depot are among the world’s most prolific peddlers of Monsanto’s Roundup. It’s time for the CEOs of those companies, Frank Blake (Home Depot), Robert Niblock (Lowe’s) and C. Douglas McMillon, the brand new CEO of Walmart, to step up and take the lead in ridding the world of Monsanto’s Roundup.
