Action Alert: Don’t Let the USDA Cave to the Pesticide Lobby!

WE HAVE A RIGHT TO KNOW WHAT’S ON OUR FOOD!

If you’re like me you rely heavily on EWG’s annual Shoppers Guide to Pesticides.  I can’t always buy organic, but with EWG’s Dirty Dozen/Clean Fifteen list I know which items to avoid if they’re not organically grown and which I can compromise on when my budget is tight.

For the past few years the pesticide industry has been lobbying hard to get the USDA to repackage its pesticide data with industry talking points that downplay risks to the public as well as consumer’s concern.  We CANNOT let this happen!  It is only through complete transparency that we can make informed decisions about the produce we purchase for ourselves and our families.  IT’S OUR RIGHT!

Tell the USDA to stand with consumers and NOT the pesticide industry.

If you care about this issue please tweet it, like it, email it, or whatever else you can do.  Thanks. ;)
