Despite the fact that bee-killing pesticides are banned in the UK, the government just gave the go-ahead to farmers to plant these toxic-
soaked seeds anyway. Any day now, Bayer and Syngenta's toxic bee-killing seeds could be planted -- wreaking even more havoc on bees.
soaked seeds anyway. Any day now, Bayer and Syngenta's toxic bee-killing seeds could be planted -- wreaking even more havoc on bees.
Hundreds of thousands of people across the country have already signed petitions to the UK government to stop harming our bees, and the government is feeling the sting. A massive public outcry could force the government to back down and protect bees.z
Neonicotinoids or “neonics", the world's most widely used insecticide, were banned in the EU in 2013.
Serious scientific evidence shows that the nerve agents cause serious harm to bees -- whose pollination is vital for many crops - and thus threaten our whole food supply.
This plan to plant UK fields with treated bee-killing seeds flies in the face of science and facts.
The government gagged its own pesticide advisers to try and stop campaigners from piling pressure on the government -- showing that they are terrified of a massive public outcry. They haven't even seen the half.
A lot of citizens are invited to support the petition to the UK government...Sign the petition.
