Friend, pesticide corporations want you to ignore their
devastating impact on our planet. But nearly 50% of U.S. honeybee colonies PERISHED last year, and neonics are
largely to blame. Frantic beekeepers worked tirelessly to help their colonies survive, but the
massive bee DIE-OFFS won’t stop unless we take action.

Here’s the problem: Neonics are the most widely used insecticides in the entire world. They’re NEUROTOXIC to our precious bees and wreak havoc on our ecosystems – contaminating our soil and water. But our farming system still uses MILLIONS of pounds of these chemicals every
single year! The pesticide industry’s chokehold on our farming system is so strong that even
the seeds of our major crops are coated with neonics.

It’s worse than you think, friend. Studies show little to no benefit for neonic seed coatings. Yet , they're putting the future of our food system and our health at risk!
Communities worldwide could pay the price if fruits, nuts and vegetables become
more scarce and expensive.

But chemical companies have a powerful lobby fighting to hide the truth and
allow them to keep control. They’re spending MILLIONS on targeted misinformation
campaigns to deceive farmers and consumers and downplay the fact that neonics
POISON our bees! Even more, ecological farming solutions already exist that could protect
pollinators and our planet. But the pesticide lobby is working to suppress the urgent bee-saving solutions we need!

We MUST fight back to get neonics OUT of our farm fields and protect our
pollinators, our communities and our planet before it’s too late. We urgently need 22 more activists from your area to speak
out before 11:‌59 p.m. ton‌ight – but we're still missing your response! Tell us
