Monsanto Tribunal: The Outcomes
<https://corporateeurope.org/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=3891&qid=553542>
Today five eminent judges
<https://corporateeurope.org/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=3903&qid=553542>
delivered a legal opinion
<https://corporateeurope.org/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=3891&qid=553542>
resulting from the Monsanto Tribunal, an international civil society
initiative to hold Monsanto accountable for human rights violations, for
crimes against humanity, and for ecocide. The Tribunal took place in The
Hague, Netherlands in October 2016 and the legal opinion was
livestreamed in several languages.
Nina Holland (Corporate Europe Observatory) welcomed the Tribunal’s outcome:
The verdict of the Monsanto Tribunal has our fullest support. Its
legal opinion makes it crystal clear that corporations like Monsanto
violate our right to live in a healthy environment and how they get
around the international laws meant to protect people and planet.
With the current wave of mega-mergers in the agribusiness sector,
the biggest pesticide producers are becoming even more powerful. But
so is our call to regulate them!
*Read our full reaction to the outcome.

Two months to get 320,000 signatures to #StopGlyphosate
<https://corporateeurope.org/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=3893&qid=553542>
Over 680,00 people have already signed the European Citizen’s Initiative
(ECI) to #StopGlyphosate
<https://corporateeurope.org/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=3893&qid=553542>.
We need to reach one million signatures by June. The ECI calls on the
European Commission to ban glyphosate; reform the pesticide approval
procedure, and to set EU-wide mandatory reduction targets for pesticide use.
*Add your name to the ECI and share it with your friends.

Opposition rises to Bayer-Monsanto and other planned agribusiness
mega-mergers
<https://corporateeurope.org/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=3894&qid=553542>
Together with 200 other organisations we signed an open letter
<https://corporateeurope.org/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=3894&qid=553542>
raising objections to the planned mergers of six giant agriculture
corporations. The signatories together represent millions of members and
include farmer, farmworker, beekeeper, religious, international
development, and environmental groups.
The letter
<https://corporateeurope.org/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=3895&qid=553542>
was sent to the European Commission and Competition Commissioner
Margrethe Vestager, and states that the proposed mergers of Dow Chemical
with DuPont, Monsanto with Bayer AG, and Syngenta with ChemChina will
lead to an unacceptable monopoly, with three companies controlling
around 70% of the world's agro-chemicals and more than 60% of commercial
seeds. This will "exacerbate the problems caused by industrial farming
<https://corporateeurope.org/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=3895&qid=553542>
– with negative consequences for the public, farmers and farm workers,
consumers, the environment, and food security".
*Take action:* Sign We Move EU’s petition to stop the Bayer-Santo merger

17 April: International Day of Peasants Struggle
CEO joined farmers in Belgium facing expulsion from their land which is
going to be concreted over as part of a road expansion. A coalition of
30 civil society groups
<https://corporateeurope.org/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=3904&qid=553542>
planted potatoes with the farmers and celebrated the food sovereignty
movement. This action was part of the International Day of Action of
Peasants Struggle.
<https://corporateeurope.org/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=3897&qid=553542>

Challenging the agribusiness lobby
Over 30 organisations took action
<https://corporateeurope.org/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=3898&qid=553542>
against agribusiness’ big lobbying event of the year: the Forum for the
Future of Agriculture
<https://corporateeurope.org/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=3899&qid=553542>.
The annual event is organised by Syngenta and the EU lobby group of
large landowners (ELO). Delegates had to walk over a ‘die-in’ of people
representing the loss of life and biodiversity caused by agribusiness
and pesticides. In the afternoon civil society gathered for a lunch at
the entrance of the congress and drew a red line on the ground against
industrialised agriculture.

Syngenta's latest PR trick: The Pope and the Pesticides
<https://corporateeurope.org/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=3900&qid=553542>
Participants to the Forum for the Future of Agriculture,
<https://corporateeurope.org/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=3899&qid=553542>
an annual lobbying event organised by Syngenta and the EU lobby of large
landowners, were greeted with a “special” video message, an "Address
from His Holiness The Pope". We found out that actually, the video did
not come from the Vatican. Read our story here.
