This chemical used to help preserve stored apples is banned in Europe because of safety concerns, yet it’s widely used on conventionally grown apples in the United States. >Not surprisingly, the pro-pesticide Alliance for Food and Farming isn’t too happy about this. As the public relations arm of big, industrial agriculture, this group has already responded to our report with the nonsensical claim that EWG is trying to scare consumers into not eating apples. >You know as well as I do that nothing could be further from the truth. The Alliance is just looking to obscure the facts about the food we’re eating at the expense of you, the consumer. >Big Ag is on the warpath, but what it doesn’t realize is that EWG has an army of supporters like you behind us – ready to help us stand up against its attacks. You’ve been there for us before, and right now we need your help again to fight back – will you donate today to help us ensure that we all know what pesticides and other chemicals turn up on our fruits and vegetables? >Give $25, $45 or more today so EWG can fend off Big Ag’s attacks and we’ll give you a sneak peek at our Shopper’s Guide to Pesticides in Produce before it comes out next week to thank you. >If it were up to Big Ag, we’d all be kept in the dark about what’s in our food – even when it has the potential to cause cancer and disrupt the endocrine system. >That’s why EWG’s work is so important. We do the research and then translate it into practical, easy-to-use tools such as our Shopper’s Guide to Pesticides in Produce that make safer grocery shopping a breeze. >EWG believes that we should all be eating fruits, vegetables and the healthiest food possible. We also believe that you have the right to know what pesticide and chemical residues are on that food. >Big conventional chemical agriculture is ready to do whatever it takes to smear the research you count on and to limit your access to information about your food. Can we count on you to stand up to these misleading and underhanded attacks? >Donate $25, $45 or more right now to help us fight back against Big Ag and be the first in line to get a look at our 2014 Dirty Dozen and Clean Fifteen lists. >Thanks for being a part of the EWG community. > >Ken Cook >President, Environmental Working Group > >Contribute >Follow us on > > >UNSUBSCRIBE | CHANGE OPTIONS >Remember to add e...@ewg.org to your contact list. >The Environmental Working Group is a non-profit, non-partisan research organization dedicated to using the power of information to protect public health and the environment.
