Dear Permanent Representative to the European Union, 

With this letter the undersigned Civil Society Groups of the Stop Glyphosate coalition call upon you to  oppose the Commission's proposal for a 10-year renewal of glyphosate's approval. Compelling new scientific evidence has emerged, demonstrating that glyphosate-based herbicides (GBHs) can cause leukaemia in rats, even at low doses deemed safe by EU regulatory authorities. In light of this new evidence, we urge you to take a firm stand to protect the health of European Citizens by voting against the renewal proposal for glyphosate and requesting its non-renewal at the upcoming Appeal Committee on November 16th.
