Europe’s bees are in a death spiral – and the EU Commission is considering
unlimited pesticide approvals.
Pesticide lobbyists are trying to rush this through before the public
catches on. We need an immediate surge of public outcry to stop this.

John,
Europe’s wild bees are in a death spiral – and the EU is about to make it
much worse.
The European Commission is proposing changes that would allow unlimited
approvals for ALL pesticides – with no mandatory safety reviews and no
requirement to consider new scientific evidence on the harmful impacts of
the chemicals in these products.
If this passes, toxic chemicals could stay in the market forever!! Unless
we stop it.
Bayer and industry lobbyists are working hard behind closed doors to rush
this through before the public catches on. Our best chance is to overwhelm
the Commission with thousands and thousands of our voices demanding they
protect bees, nature, and people – NOT Bayer’s profits.

Wild bees pollinate a third of our crops. Without them, we would lose
apples, tomatoes, and countless other foods we rely on. Their survival is
our survival. And pesticides are decimating whole populations of them. In
the last decade, the number of wild bee species at risk of extinction has
more than doubled.
The Commission’s proposed changes would accelerate their deaths and cause
untold harm to people for generations to come. They would allow open-ended
approvals, eliminate mandatory review of new scientific evidence, and
double the time banned pesticides can stay in the market after they’re
ruled too dangerous for use.
This would be the biggest rollback on pesticide protections the EU has
ever seen. It’s critical we act now – while we can still influence what
happens next.
Together, we’ve won many bans on dangerous pesticides and forced some of
the world’s biggest companies to pull their products from the market. If
we come together now, we can push the Commission to do the right thing and
defend the laws that protect all of us from toxic chemicals.
