Your Signature Needed: Tell Bayer-Monsanto to STOP selling bee-killing pesticides

URGENT ACTION NEEDED: Bee-killing pesticides are WIPING OUT pollinators and driving them toward EXTINCTION. Pollinators are VITAL to many ecosystems. They help over 180,000 species of plants to reproduce, including those that provide us with nutritious foods such as fruits, vegetables, nuts, and more. But with critical pollinators like the American bumblebee dying at alarming rates, many plants that are important to our food system and healthy ecosystems are THREATENED. A key culprit is the widespread use of toxic pesticides like Bayer-Monsanto’s neonics -- the most widely used insecticides in the world. Neonics are poisoning the pollen and nectar that bees rely on to survive, but these profit-driven corporations continue to sell these bee-killing pesticides. [Friend, please add your name to tell Bayer-Monsanto to STOP producing neonics before we lose more bees and other essential wild pollinators! >>]( [SIGN THE PETITION NOW]( In the last 20 years, the American bumblebee population has dropped by 89%. At the same time, the Rusty Patch Bumblebee has declined by 87%. Bees and other pollinators are essential to 1 out of 3 bites of food, but toxic neonics pesticides are KILLING them at alarming rates. Corporate giants like Bayer-Monsanto downplay the harms of these toxic chemicals because they are driven by profit, and it’s threatening vulnerable pollinators and harming our food system. [Will you take action right now to protect pollinators and our food system from these bee-killing pesticides?]( [SIGN THE PETITION NOW]( Thanks for taking urgent action.
