Join me and help save bees from the
torrent of toxic neonic pesticides that are wiping them out.

Tell the EPA to restrict the use of neonic pesticides
responsible for killing bees and other pollinators and poisoning
our environment. We’re trying to send 20,000 letters before July
31!

Hey NRDC Activist,

If you care about bees, you're going to want to hear this:

Right now, the EPA is deciding what to do about neonic
pesticides. Those are the pesticides that play a leading role in
wiping out bee and butterfly populations. Scientists say these
chemicals are among the most ecologically disastrous pesticides
since DDT (yeah, that same DDT that was so toxic the EPA banned
it in the 70s!).

The EPA only does this review of neonics once every fifteen
years! That means raising your voice right now will make a really
big difference for bees and butterflies.

I just sent my letter telling the EPA to save our
pollinators by restricting toxic, bee-killing neonic pesticides.
Will you join me and send yours? Help NRDC submit 20,000 letters
by Monday, July 31, to really put the pressure on the agency. ( [link removed] )

Neonic pesticide use skyrocketed in the mid-2000s, and
that's exactly when beekeepers started sounding the alarm that
large portions of their honeybee hives were disappearing. But it
gets even worse.

An alarming new EPA analysis revealed that the three most
commonly used neonics are likely pushing 200+ endangered and
threatened species toward extinction. That includes the rusty
patched bumble bee, Hine's emerald dragonfly, and Karner blue
butterfly.

Bees are responsible for one out of every three bites of
food we eat — like many fruits, nuts, and vegetables. And as we
rapidly lose bees and other pollinators, we're seeing crop yields
decline for foods like blueberries, cherries, and apples.

Less bees = less food, which could lead to rising food
costs and reduced access to healthy foods that would hit
low-income communities and communities of color hardest.

I've heard enough about neonics to know we need to
dramatically curb their use. If you're with me, will you send a
letter to the EPA ( [link removed] )?

Demand the EPA restrict the use of neonic pesticides and
save bees, butterflies, and other pollinators from extinction.
Take action now and help us flood the EPA's office with 20,000
letters by July 31. ( [link removed] )

If you're wondering just how toxic these pesticides are,
get this:

Just one corn seed coated with neonics can contain enough
toxin to kill a quarter of a million bees! And right now, these
pesticides are approved for use everywhere: lawns, parks,
gardens, trees in urban and suburban areas, and on 140 crops.

No wonder bees are dropping like flies.

With the EPA undergoing its once-in-a-fifteen-year review
of these killer neonic pesticides, we've got to bury their office
in letters demanding they take action.

Join me and let's push the EPA to do its job to protect
pollinators and the web of life that sustains us. ( [link removed] )

Thanks for your help. I'm glad NRDC has you on their side.
