Sign The Petition: Time is running out to save bees from being pushed to extinction by toxic neonics

URGENT ACTION NEEDED: If the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) APPROVES neonics this year, bees could be pushed to EXTINCTION. Take action now! >> URGENT ACTION NEEDED: If the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) APPROVES neonics this year, bees could be pushed to EXTINCTION. [Take action now! >>]( Bees are DYING OUT rapidly, and there is no question that neonics are killing them. Take the American bumblebee for example: this beloved and once most common species has DECLINED BY 90% in the past 20 years as use of neonics has risen. Time is running out — in the coming months, the EPA is expected to make a consequential decision on whether or not to approve these bee-killing chemicals for another 15 years. If these toxic pesticides are approved, many vulnerable bees simply won’t stand a chance at survival, Friend. Not all hope is lost though. We still have a slim window of opportunity to apply enough public pressure on the EPA to BAN bee-killing neonics — NOT approve them! To make a strong impression, we need 3,827 more grassroots voices like yours to speak up today by 11:59 P.M. TONIGHT. [Will you add your name now to help SAVE our precious bees from toxic neonics while there’s still time left?]( [SIGN THE PETITION]( Friend, can you imagine life without your favorite fruits, veggies, or nuts? Well, without bees pollinating 75% of our most nutritious crops, many of these foods and ingredients might not be available. Try this: Think about the last meal you ate… now, consider the fact that bees are responsible for 1 out of 3 bites of food we eat! You can see how devastating a world without bees would be. These essential pollinators are absolutely critical to our ecosystems and food supply — so if we want to protect our planet and life as we know it, then we MUST protect our pollinators. And right now, one of the biggest threats that bees and other vulnerable pollinators are facing is toxic neonics. That means we need to act now before it’s too late. [SIGN NOW: Tell the EPA to prioritize our pollinators and planet above pesticide industry profits and BAN bee-killing neonics immediately! >>]( [SIGN THE PETITION]( Thanks for defending our pollinators!
