[[link removed]]URGENT ACTION NEEDED: Toxic pesticides KILLING endangered species - stop the EPA from approving them for another 15 years! Please take immediate
action!
Neonics pesticides are extraordinarily toxic, Friend. In
fact, the EPA’s own assessment found that commonly used neonics are likely
driving more than 200 threatened and endangered species toward extinction! Emerald dragonflies, Karner blue butterflies, and the beloved Rusty-Patched Bumblebee could disappear!
The Rusty-Patched Bumblebee population has PLUMMETED 90% in just the past few decades. Despite SPIRALING wild bee populations and the
threats to hundreds of endangered species, the EPA is set to approve neonics for another 15 years! We don’t have 15 years -- bees are dying every second we wait! Please, Friend, tell the EPA to BAN bee-killing
pesticides before it’s too late! Add your name by 11:59 pm TONIGHT!

[[link removed]]Bees and other pollinators support 1 of every 3 bites of food that we eat. Our grocery stores rely on them to keep shelves stocked.
But neonics have made U.S. agriculture nearly 48x MORE TOXIC TO BEES over the past few decades, making it harder for bees to support the crops we
rely on.
The science is clear, Friend: neonics are a danger to
pollinators, endangered species, our food system, and the planet. The EPA itself
has come to this conclusion, but it still could move forward with approving
these toxic pesticides for fifteen more years. Help save bees and endangered species from neonic pesticides!
