Die Vereinigung Eko sammelt Geld für ne Klage gegen Notfallzulassungen für Bienen-schädliche #Pflanzenschutzmittel z.B. von #Bayer

"Deshalb bereitet sich eine kleine Gruppe von Bienenschützer*innen darauf vor, gegen diese Pseudo-Notfallgenehmigungen zu klagen und sicherzustellen, dass die Regierungen das Verbot durchsetzen. Aber die Gerichtskosten summieren sich schnell und sie brauchen unsere Hilfe"

Es geht um Neonicotinoide. Wen jemand die Klage unterstützen möchte:

$2 billion Roundup verdict drives down Bayer shares as company seeks legal immunity. The latest jury verdict to rock #Bayer investors “shows the community is not going to tolerate … these types of backroom dealings … manipulating science and scientific journals.” #Monsanto #glyphosate thenewlede.org/2025/03/2-billi

The New Lede · $2 billion Roundup jury verdict drives down Bayer shares as company seeks law changeBy Carey Gillam A Georgia jury verdict ordering Bayer AG to pay over $2 billion to a man suffering from cancer he blamed on his use of Roundup weed killer comes as that state’s governor weighs whether to sign into law a measure that would effectively bar such cases from going to trial in the future. Friday’s verdict rocked Bayer investors, driving down the German company’s shares more than 8% on Monday. The Georgia jury found that Bayer, which bought Roundup maker Monsanto in 2018, failed to properly warn users of years of scientific evidence that exposure to Roundup could cause cancer, awarding plaintiff John Barnes $2 billion in punitive damages and $65 million in compensatory damages. Barnes developed non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) after using Roundup to spray weeds around his home in Dalton, Georgia, from 1999 to 2019, purchasing the herbicide from Home Depot stores. He was diagnosed with NHL in 2020 and has endured multiple rounds of treatment and one recurrence of the disease, though he currently is in remission, according to his lawyers. He is one of more than 100,000 people in the US who have filed lawsuits alleging they developed cancer due to use of Monsanto’s weed killers. Barnes, a father, grandfather and former Marine, testified in the three-week trial that the disease and treatment have taken a lasting toll. “With this cancer … there is no cure,” Barnes testified. He cried as he described persistent fear that his time with his family may be limited. “Every day is worry, not just for me but my family.”

Ein US-Geschworenen-Gericht hat den Agrarchemie- und Pharma-Konzern #Bayer zu knapp 1,9 Milliarden Euro Schadenersatz verurteilt. Der Aktienkurs ist am Montag um fast sieben Prozent abgestürzt.

Die Probleme rund um den #glyphosat-haltigen Unkrautvernichter #Roundup hatte Bayer sich 2018 mit der über 60 Milliarden Dollar teuren Übernahme der US-Firma #Monsanto ins Haus geholt.

Berliner Zeitung · Bayer zu 2,1 Milliarden Dollar Schadenersatz wegen Glyphosat verurteilt, Aktie stürzt abBy Michael Maier

Amid all the bad news, here is some excellent news.

#environmental news.

#Bayer / Monsanto loses court case in Georgia because YES, glyphosate, the active ingredient found in Roundup, causes cancer in 2-leggeds and death in vital ecosystem maintainers without 2 legs.

Poor poisoned land and 4-leggeds, bees, and all pollinators get a small win.

Erneut muss Bayer eine Schlappe in einem Prozess um sein Herbizid Roundup hinnehmen. Und erneut reagieren Anleger sensibel, obwohl die Strafsumme noch deutlich sinken dürfte. Die Aktionäre werden nach Ansicht eines Experten auf dem falschen Fuß erwischt.#Wirtschaft #Dax-Unternehmen #Bayer #Glyphosat #Pharmaindustrie #USA
