NRDC Activist,

When bees come into contact with neonic pesticides — such as by feeding on
the pollen and nectar of a treated plant — dreadful things often happen:
weakened navigation, uncontrollable twitching, paralysis, and eventually,
death.

America has lost thirty percent or more of honeybee colonies each year for
the past seven years, in large part due to this neonic pesticide
bombardment.

Instead of protecting bees, Trump's EPA is helping giant agrichemical
companies unleash even more of these deadly neonic products. But NRDC is
fighting back hard to defend bees — both in and out of court — and we
could really use your help.

[ [link removed] ]Today is the last day to make an
emergency donation to our campaign so that we have the resources we need
to prevail over Trump's EPA, protect our bees, and defend our environment
in the most effective way possible. All gifts will be MATCHED up to $50K!

The United Nations has issued a warning: about three-quarters of the
world's food crops rely, in part, on pollination by insects and other
animals, so we can't afford to lose any more pollinators. But pollinating
bees in America are spiraling downward, lost in a haze of toxic neonic
chemicals that can debilitate and kill them.

That's not all: neonic residues are found in our honey, some of our fresh
fruits and vegetables, and even baby food. Government-supported research
suggests that exposure to this harmful bee-killing pesticide could also be
harmful to our own health.

The EPA should be working to protect pollinators and people. But the Trump
administration is not about to let our health — or the survival of
pollinators — get in the way of its rush to protect the profits of
agrichemical giants like Bayer-Monsanto. So NRDC is taking the EPA to
court and we need your strong support:

$50K to support our battle against the EPA and some of the world's most
powerful corporations, and to defend our environment on all fronts.

Thank you for standing with NRDC in this critical campaign.

Sincerely,

Jennifer Sass
Senior Scientist, Healthy People and Thriving Communities, NRDC


Donations will be used to fight back against Trump’s assault on our
pollinators, the spread of toxic bee-killing pesticides, and for other
campaigns that allow NRDC to protect the environment in the most effective
way possible.

The mission of the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) is to
safeguard the Earth: its people, its plants and animals, and the natural
systems on which all life depends.
