For at least 35 years Monsanto and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) knew about the cancer-causing abilities of glyphosate-containing herbicides. Nonetheless, they chose to cover it up, putting you, your family and millions of Americans at risk.

Monsanto is the world’s leading producer of genetically engineered or modified seeds. They also manufacture Roundup, the glyphosate-based herbicide used by farmers worldwide to kill weeds. According to Monsanto’s annual report, Roundup raked in over $994 million in net sales between 2013 and 2014.

Glyphosate, the active ingredient in Roundup, is absorbed through leaves and roots and carried internally by the plant to its growing points. According to the U.S. Geological Survey, over 2.6 billion pounds of Roundup was sprayed on U.S. farmland between 1992 and 2012.
