Linda is a blogger, mother, and activist against toxic lawn applications. For the past five years, she has written about and promoted a sustainable, more mindful lifestyle, and she is the woman behind the “Ban TruGreen” petition, which demands that TruGreen, a nationwide lawn care company, switch to a non-toxic formula.
How You Can Help Raise Awareness:
- Educate yourself on your city’s pest control and pesticide use. Pesticides can be found everywhere - in cities, suburbs, and rural areas.
- Write to your state/municipality/HOA/block about safer pesticide use, banning pesticides altogether, or at the very least, providing a schedule of when pesticides will be used. Here are letter/flyer/brochure templates you can leverage.
- Sign the petition to demand that TruGreen switch to a non-toxic formula: www.change.org/bantrugreen.
- Make “pesticide-free” or “ban TruGreen” signs for your lawn to raise awareness with neighbors and to let them know they can walk safely on your grass.
The Truth About TruGreen:
- 53% of TruGreen’s products include ingredients that are possible carcinogens.
- 41% of TruGreen’s products include ingredients that are banned or restricted in other countries.
- 34% of TruGreen’s products include ingredients that are known or suspected endocrine disruptors.
- 28% of TruGreen products include ingredients that are known or suspected reproductive toxins.
- 100% of TruGreen’s products include ingredients that threaten our environment, including our water supplies.
- 0% of TruGreen’s pesticide application signs provide the exact time the lawn was sprayed, putting humans and animals at risk!
