Greenpeace Nederland en Sum of Us bieden 222.000 handtekeningen aan tegen een voorstel van de Europese Commissie voor de toelating van glyfosaat in onkruidbestrijdingsmiddelen. Een 'nee' van de Tweede Kamer kan het voorstel van de EU, dat het omstreden middel na negen jaar weer wil toelaten in Europa, tegenhouden. Volgens de WHO is het middel 'waarschijnlijk kankerverwekkend voor mensen'.Locations:The HagueDate:17 May, 2016Credit:© Greenpeace / Marten van DijlMaximum size:4687px X 3009pxKeywords:Day-Direct communications-Dutch Government-Glyphosate-Government buildings-Health-Herbicides-KWCI (GPI)-Medium group of people-Men-Outdoors-Petitions-SAGE (campaign title)-Signs-Urban areas-World Health Organization (WHO)Shoot:Dutch NGO's Deliver Petition at Dutch Parliament222.000 people in the Netherlands and Europe have signed the petition which is delivered to the Parliament this afternoon by The Sum of Us and Greenpeace.They ask the political parties to forbid the usage of glyphosate one of the components in the herbicide Roundup made by Monsanto.
