John,

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is supposed to protect our health and the environment. Instead, they’ve allowed the use of bee-killing pesticides. Bee colonies are dying.

The EPA has the power to stop this massive bee die-off and protect the environment and our health. Send a message today demanding a ban on all bee-killing pesticides!

John,

Beekeepers across the United States are losing their honey bees. That's a disaster – not just for our gardens but for our farmers and crops.

Honey bees pollinate many of our food crops — $15 billion worth each year — including more than 130 varieties of fruits and vegetables.

But a class of pesticides called neonicotinoids (neonics) is contributing to drastic bee die-offs. Neonics impair bees’ natural defense systems, limit their reproductive success and hurt their chances of survival. Despite the vital role bees play in sustaining our food supply, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) continues to allow the widespread use of these bee-killing pesticides.

To protect pollinators and our food supply, we must ban dangerous pesticides like neonicotinoids. That’s why we need you to join us in putting pressure on the EPA. Send the EPA a message: Ban all bee-killing pesticides! It’s time to take action and help save the bees.

The EPA has a history of approving the use of bee-killing pesticides, even though they hurt both humans and bees. That means that humans will be eating, drinking and breathing pesticide poisons for years, and bee colonies will continue to die.

The EPA must stop ignoring science and enabling pesticide-producing corporations. Instead, it needs to protect our health and the environment. Take action now to protect bees: Urge the EPA to ban neonicotinoid pesticides once and for all!
