Send a message to Lowe's & Home Depot: Stop selling Roundup

;

SumOfUS shared: Lowe’s and Home Depot know that glyphosate -- the main chemical ingredient in Roundup -- is linked to increased risk of cancer and reproductive problems. They know that glyphosate also threatens 93% of US endangered species with injury or death. But both mega hardware stores have refused to stop selling it.

That is why this week, SumOfUs is joining forces with partners across North America for a week of action to demand that Lowe’s and Home Depot #RejectRoundup now!

Send a tweet to demand that the two largest hardware store chains in the world take Roundup off shelves for good!

Not on Twitter? Post a message on the Lowe’s Facebook wall.

And on Home Depot’s Facebook wall.

Both the Lowe’s and Home Depot CEOs care a lot about preserving their brand reputation. They want customers to think of their stores as safe places where you can get everything you need to create a beautiful home and garden.

So this week we are taking out ads in newspapers, sending out Tweets, posting to Facebook, and mailing letters to make it clear that selling Roundup will seriously damage Lowe’s and Home Depot’s brands.

Help us create an avalanche of tweets on the Lowe’s and Home Depot Twitter feeds.

Not on Twitter or Facebook? That’s OK. Mail a letter to Lowe’s and Home Depot by printing out, signing, and sending these letters.
