Eva, a nine year old girl, will never have a “normal” life, worries her mother. She’s been diagnosed with autism and ADHD, linked to over-exposure to the poisonous pesticide chlorpyrifos.
Chlorpyrifos has been extensively studied and is linked to many neurodevelopment issues such as autism, ADHD and intelligence deficiencies. Despite the overwhelming evidence of its harm Dow Chemical, the producer of this dangerous pesticide, insists that it is safe.
Dow Chemical wants farmers to keep using the pesticide and is fighting the known science in order to get their way. They would rather have their pockets lined than see healthy children prospering.
You can stop this! Tell Dow Chemical to stop selling chlorpyrifos!
Chlorpyrifos is a widely used and distributed pesticide and Dow Chemical refuses to remove it as a component in their products.
However, recently, even the EPA has taken a stance against it because of the overwhelming evidence that it is linked to developmental issues in children.
Dow needs to admit to the current science and take this harmful chemical out of its products and stop its production and distribution.
Protect children and sign today to tell Dow enough is enough!
