URGENT ACTION NEEDED: The EPA is still set to approve bee-killing neonics for another 15 YEARS!

Imagine walking into the grocery store to find ONLY HALF the amount of fruits and veggies you typically find. Unfortunately, that could one day be our reality -- wild bee and other essential pollinator populations are RAPIDLY SPIRALING -- putting our food system at risk.

We rely on these helpful little pollinators for 1 out of 3 bites of food that we eat and 75% of the world’s most nutritious food crops like fruits, veggies, and nuts. But the widespread use of bee-killing pesticides called neonics is a key factor in DWINDLING wild bee populations -- and the EPA might approve these harmful pesticides for ANOTHER 15 YEARS!

Friend, if just 34 people reading this email take action before MIDNIGHT tonight, we can help give pollinators a fighting chance before it’s too late. Please, will you add your name NOW? >>

Neonics are DEADLY TO BEES. They ATTACK bees’ nervous systems and can harm their ability to navigate, find food, fight pests and diseases, and EVEN REPRODUCE. 

And wild bee populations are already PLUMMETING: over the last two decades alone, the beloved Western Bumblebee population has dropped 93%! But Big Ag continues to profit off bee-killing neonics, contributing to the decline.

If the EPA approves these deadly pesticides, neonics will continue to wreak havoc on vulnerable wild bee populations and push them further to the brink of EXTINCTION. Friend, this would be DISASTROUS for pollinators, people, and the planet. How long will we let the reckless pursuit of profit continue? Add your name before MIDNIGHT tonight to help save vulnerable pollinators and the planet! >>

Thank you for taking urgent action for pollinators!
