No More Glyphosate NZ is an independent, community-funded project focused on transparency around glyphosate use, residues, and regulation in New Zealand. We investigate how pesticides, food production, and policy decisions affect public health and consumer clarity — so New Zealanders can make informed choices in a system that often hides the detail.
When the nightly chorus of frogs suddenly stopped near a suburban golf course, one resident wondered: did herbicides silence them? Within days, the weeds around the pond browned and died. Could the spray meant to tame grass also be pushing away—or even killing—the frogs?
In just two years, Auckland Council workers have been repeatedly splashed, soaked, and sprayed with glyphosate weedkillers. Are these exposures early warning signs of much bigger problems ahead?
New research shows women may face higher health risks from glyphosate than men. Find out why gender matters, what regulators have missed, and how to protect your health.
Auckland Council contractors used over 20 tonnes of glyphosate in 2024 — much of it sprayed straight into roadside gutters that drain to the sea. Our article investigates the hidden risks.
When South Dublin County Council moved to fully ban glyphosate from its operations, it sent a clear message: community voices can drive real change. As more councils worldwide turn away from this controversial weedkiller, it’s time to ask why so many in New Zealand still cling to outdated spray regimes.
A new peer-reviewed study finds a 40% higher risk of death with rising urinary glyphosate levels. With testing still hard to access in New Zealand, is it time to rethink glyphosate use?
A new study shows 1 in 4 US infants has no Bifidobacterium, a crucial gut microbe. With glyphosate’s known antimicrobial effects, is our chemical environment putting babies’ microbiomes at risk?
Like tobacco before it, glyphosate’s defenders may one day scramble to rewrite history. Will we let them? Here’s what happens when the ship finally sinks.
Bayer is facing massive lawsuits, scientific backlash, and CEO warnings about Roundup’s future. Carey Gillam’s exposés are playing out in real time — but what does it mean for New Zealand?
Gluten-free labels dominate store shelves, but what if the real problem isn’t gluten—it’s glyphosate? With rising rates of gut issues, is it time to shift focus from wheat to the weedkiller sprayed on it?
A U.S. article hails glyphosate as vital to corn farming—but is it time to question the logic of a food system that can’t function without one chemical?
