No More Glyphosate NZ is a grassroots campaign dedicated to raising awareness about the health and environmental risks of glyphosate use in New Zealand. Our mission is to empower communities to take action, advocate for safer alternatives, and challenge policies that put public safety at risk. Join us in the fight to stop the chemical creep!

Manufactured Fear or Valid Concern? Cutting Through the Rhetoric Around Glyphosate

When Federated Farmers call Greenpeace’s glyphosate warnings “manufactured outrage,” it raises a bigger question: is this really fearmongering—or the precaution we all deserve?

The Desiccation Dilemma: Why Glyphosate’s Real Role Is Hard to Replace

Glyphosate isn’t just a weedkiller—it’s used to dry crops like wheat and oats before harvest. But when we try to remove it, we hit a bigger system problem.

Glyphosate and Chronic Disease: Are We Connecting the Dots Too Late?

Glyphosate use and chronic disease have risen hand in hand since the 1990s. Science points to a connection regulators ignore. The question for New Zealand: will we keep trusting “safe” claims while the evidence says otherwise?

Supermarket Bread Test Results: What We Found

We tested six popular supermarket breads for glyphosate and related chemicals. No residues were found above the reporting limit, but that doesn’t mean they’re glyphosate-free.

Glyphosate at “Safe” Levels: The Cancer Risk New Zealand Can’t Ignore

A major new study shows glyphosate can trigger cancers at doses regulators call “safe.” With residues in honey, cereals, and bread, how safe is NZ’s food?

Why Roundup® Is More Dangerous Than Glyphosate Alone

Glyphosate is tested in isolation, but nobody sprays it that way. Roundup® and other formulations contain hidden additives that can make them far more toxic — a risk New Zealand regulators continue to ignore.

Roundup® Exposed: The Chemical Cocktail Behind Glyphosate’s Mask

Roundup® has always been sold as “glyphosate in a bottle.” But the real product is a chemical cocktail of surfactants, solvents, and hidden co-formulants — many more toxic than glyphosate itself. Here’s how Roundup really works, why regulators overlook it, and why NZ can’t afford to

Is Glyphosate the Real Culprit Behind Gluten Sensitivity?

Gluten often gets the blame for digestive distress, but what if something else is at play? Recent research suggests glyphosate residues on wheat may be quietly reshaping the gut microbiome, making gluten harder to tolerate and triggering symptoms that go far beyond digestion. Could the real culprit in wheat sensitivity be the chemical sprayed on it, rather than the grain itself?

Coffee and Glyphosate: What’s Really in Your Morning Brew?

Coffee is the daily ritual for millions — but recent US testing found trace glyphosate in 57 products across 45 brands. Levels were low, yet the question remains: what does “safe” really mean when a chemical shows up in nearly everything we eat and drink? One day, we’d like to see the same testing in New Zealand’s coffee.

WeedX: A Glyphosate-Free Vinegar-Based Weedkiller

WeedX is a New Zealand-made, vinegar-based weedkiller that works fast without glyphosate. Available in both natural and organic formulas, it’s safe for kids, pets, and pollinators — and breaks down quickly in the soil.

How Does Glyphosate End Up in Honey Without Killing the Bees?

Glyphosate traces in honey don’t always mean dead bees — but that doesn’t make them harmless. Discover how bees can survive sublethal exposure, why the residues end up in your jar, and what it reveals about our chemical-saturated environment.

Another “No” from the Ministry: No Independent Review, No Long-Term Monitoring

The Ministry of Health says it hasn’t reviewed or monitored glyphosate exposure in New Zealand — and has no plans to start.
