Monsanto is one of the biggest, most powerful -- and most evil -- corporations in the world. And we just kicked Monsanto's butt.

Monsanto's army of lobbyists has been trying to get the European Union to re-approve the use of Roundup -- a probable human carcinogen -- for another nine years.

But with the combined effort of environmental groups, scientists and consumer watchdogs pressuring authorities for a ban, we got a majority of European governments to oppose the extension, and the vote was cancelled -- twice!

Roundup is now scheduled to be taken off the market by the end of this year -- but Monsanto’s lobbyists have launched a last-ditch push for a so-called "technical exemption" for two more years, a delay that serves no purpose but to keep spending millions on their lobbying campaign against us. Will you chip in to help keep up the fight?

This victory was great news for Europe, but it's important for the rest of the world as well. We proved that you CAN take on the world's most evil corporation and win.

And this victory was truly unbelievable. Monsanto was shocked that stores literally had to take Roundup off the shelves after we won!

Now we've got campaign teams in Canada and the U.S. and Australia all learning from the victory in the EU -- and we're planning our next steps to make sure we can defend this victory in Europe as well. Tens of thousands of you joined our call yesterday demanding European governments stand strong against the dangerous pesticide. 

To take on a multinational Goliath like Monsanto, we need a multinational movement of activists working together through the power of the Internet. That's exactly what SumOfUs is all about.
