World Court finds against Monsanto

Thank you, Maggie, for your letter addressing concerns about Glyphosate / Roundup and the considerable and the enormous dangers to our environment. I would like to support that with some additional information.

In 2016, Monsanto was taken to the World Court in the Hague and found guilty of health crimes against humanity and the environment, among other things. The suit was brought by over 1,000 international organizations including the Organic Consumers Association; Greenpeace; Buddhist Tribunal on Human Rights; Ecoworld of Scandinavia; Partners for the Land & Agricultural Needs of Traditional Peoples; Network for Human Rights, Equality & Justice; World Permaculture Association; Asia Pacific Research Network; Earthlaw Alliance; Women’s Alliance for Peace; Freedom US / Earth Democracy Group; Rights of Nature Europe; Friends of the Earth to name a few.

A complete list of international supporters is available at Monsanto-tribunal.com Additional information can be found via Google and Facebook. Search “Monsanto tribunal.”
