How many posts for #WorldEarthDay have you seen todays that mention Glyphosate use for weedcontrol?
We’ve all heard of Planting ‘wild’flower and tree planting , tidying , litter picking creating green spaces… Great on the surface , good intentions but does not compensate or justify the continued use of pesticides

If we truly care about the Environment declaring a ‘climate emergency’ this should also mean an immediate end to the destructive pesticide actions we presently take .
Especially now in 2025 we all know many safe alternatives for weed control there are readily available…
We must stay focused and cannot be distracted by so called 'green' ‘sustainable’ projects , no matter how tempting the funding ££££
If we ignore and continue to use Glyphosate unnecessarIly for weed control Is any ‘green’ ‘sustainable’ project really for the environment ? Whilst continued use of the worlds most harmful commercially available chemical , Glyphosate continues disregardless...We think not
Amazing things happen when people work with their communities to work on a genuine cause to help protect our planet , wildlife and especially our most vulnerable
Keep focussed Step1 make our communities Pesticide Free !
If your outside of Balerno we recommend using our letter templates
