Ban the sale and use of Glyphosate

Petition Details

UK councils routinely spray verges & parks with Glyphosate. It is routinely sold in shops and used in gardens across the UK. The World Health Organisation says that Glyphosate is "probably carcinogenic" to humans.

Additional Information

Some studies have found that:
* Glyphosate has adverse effects on earthworms, beneficial insects and bees.
* Indirect impacts on birds/animals occur in wiping out weeds and wild flowers, destroying habitat and food availability.
*Glyphosate is water soluble leading to significant effects on species that underpin the entire aquatic food chain with amphibians being particularly vulnerable.
*It upsets the balance of microbial communities in soil impacting on soil fertility.
