URGENT ACTION NEEDED: EPA could approve BEE-KILLING neonic pesticides for 15 more years!

Over the last two decades, pesticides have made agriculture 48x MORE TOXIC to bees. And neonic pesticides were the primary culprit. In the same time period, the beloved Western Bumblebee population dropped 93%! 

Neonic pesticides are a key driver pushing our wild bees toward EXTINCTION! Pollinators are keystone species that glue ecosystems together. As long as neonics threaten bees and pollinators like them, they threaten entire ecosystems too! Friend, the EPA could approve these toxic pesticides for 15 more years! We need 78 more people from your city to take action and stop them! Add your name by 11:59pm TONIGHT and help SAVE BEES! >>

Bees are responsible for 1 of every 3 bites of food that we eat. Without them, you’d find fewer fruits, veggies, and nuts on grocery store shelves. And if you’re wearing cotton right now, you have pollinators to thank.

Many wild bee populations are dwindling and could vanish forever.But the EPA could let neonics wreak havoc for another 15 years. We can’t let that happen — pollinators, ecosystems, our food system, and our planet depend on it! HELP SAVE BEES: Stop neonic pesticides before vulnerable wild bees go EXTINCT FOREVER!
