Are garden stores selling us “bee-friendly” plants that are actually
drenched in bee-killing chemicals?
We’ve had a tip-off that this practice is rampant -- but we urgently need
lab tests to be sure.

John,
We’ve just had word that so-called “bee-friendly” plants sold in garden
centers and supermarkets are doused in toxic chemicals made by Bayer.
If Bayer’s shady behaviour is anything to go by, it’s highly likely this
is true. We urgently need to gather the evidence to persuade garden
centers to stop cooperating with Bayer’s toxic business.
We’ve planned out an undercover investigation and found a specialist lab
that can test these plants for pesticides. If it turns out these
“bee-friendly” plants are really bee-killers, we’ll blow this scandal wide
open -- and we’ve got journalists on call to help us do just that.
Can you chip in to cover the cost of the investigation?

[ [link removed] ]Yes, I'll donate
$1
to protect the bees from Bayer's toxic pesticides.
Gardens, allotments and balconies are such an important food source for
bees and other pollinators. If our gardens are no longer safe from Bayer's
neonics, the bees have nowhere left to turn.
So we need to start this investigation right now. Armed with the evidence
we can create a media blitz and pressure garden centers to stop selling
plants doused in bee-killing pesticides.
Bayer will be furious. The company is hemorrhaging money after you got
most of its pesticides banned in Europe. With your help, we'll make
gardens a no-neonics zone, and take-away Bayer's chance to make more money
from killing bees in Europe.
