More than 38,449 supporters have already weighed in on bee-killing pesticides, but we haven’t heard from you, friend.
We need 11,551 more supporters to weigh in before 11:59 p.m. tonight. Can we count on you to speak up?
TAKE THE SURVEY: Do you think the U.S. should ban neonic pesticides?
Remember, neonics have been linked to a massive decline in bee populations, and emerging research suggests they may also harm migrating birds and white-tailed deer. The EU just banned another of these highly toxic pesticides, but the U.S. has done nothing!
Thanks for your feedback, friend.

Subject: Take action to protect bees
Dear friend,
The EU has just banned yet another bee-killing pesticide. This is the fourth neonicotinoid the EU has banned to protect key pollinators, like bees.
But the U.S. is still backing the pesticide industry!
Emerging research suggests these pesticides may be wreaking havoc on birds and fish, in addition to bees. Even more disturbing research suggests neonics may cause serious birth defects in white-tailed deer, raising alarms about possible effects on human health.
We desperately need the EPA to step up and take action on neonics before we cause irreparable harm to our environment and our health. We need 2,875 of our top supporters to complete our survey on bee-killing pesticides before midnight tonight to help us formulate our plans.
Do you think the U.S. should ban neonic pesticides?
Thanks for your feedback, friend.
