John,
The world’s gardens are awash with bee-killing pesticides sold illegally
on Amazon, often while bypassing government bans and safety regulations.
But with your help, we can change that.
Just one teaspoon of these toxins can kill over four truckloads of bees –
that’s 1.25 BILLION pollinators GONE. And bees provide 90% of the food we
eat!
If enough of us chip in now, we can fund a team of bee protectors to
identify and shut down the illegal pesticide trade on Amazon, before sales
start to spike for spring planting. John, bee populations will
continue to plummet until we rid the planet of these bee-killing
pesticides for good – can you chip in today to save the bees in 2024?

Amazon is trying to bury its head in the sand, ignoring the illegal
bee-killing pesticide sales on its site. But here’s the thing. It can't
get away with ignoring it if a seller is flagged for illegal behavior
using Amazon’s own safety tools.
That’s where we come in! There are hundreds of thousands of sellers, but a
team of bee protectors, with enough time and resources, can:
* flag illegal sellers with online tools, document the illegal activity
and report it to Amazon's head office
* submit thousands of claims to regulators worldwide, flooding Amazon's
legal office with complaints on behalf of the bees
* monitor and report on the company's inaction with major media outlets,
putting pressure on Amazon publicly to act to protect bees
Amazon sells these poisonous pesticides to make money, but if we can
increase the legal cost, the cost to its brand and to its bottom line, we
can shut down the underground pesticide market for good.
Can you help return millions of gardens back to the bees?

John, this is about bees – and our very survival. Hundreds of
thousands of us have united to get bee-killing pesticides banned across
the EU and Canada – now let’s get them off Amazon.
Thanks for all that you do,
Miriam and the Ekō team
