Cease the Use of Roundup in Alton Landscaping

The Issue

As locals of Palm Beach Gardens, FL we bear witness to the potential harm caused by the use of the herbicide Roundup in our community's landscaping, particularly in Alton. For many of us, this is not a faceless issue. It's personal. Roundup has been linked to serious health concerns, including causing cancer, which has tragically touched lives within our community. The International Agency for Research on Cancer classified glyphosate, the active ingredient in Roundup, as "probably carcinogenic to humans." This has sparked concerns worldwide about the potential health risks of continued glyphosate use. It's time to rethink landscaping practices in Alton. In light of these realities, we call upon local authorities and constructors to discontinue the use of this potentially harmful product in our community's landscaping. Only through your signatures can we facilitate this necessary change for the health and well-being of Palm Beach Gardens residents. Please, sign this petition.
