To the UK government and Members of Parliament:

We call on you to listen to experts from around the world and reverse the approval of the National Farmers Union’s request to relax the ban on the neonicotinoid pesticides blamed for the disastrous fall in bee populations.

UK: Save our bees -- Keep the ban
The government has just allowed bee-killing pesticides to be unleashed across Britain's farms, threatening the butterflies and bugs we rely on to grow our food.

Scientists' warnings got these pesticides banned across the European Union, but the government has caved in to the powerful pesticide industry and the National Farmers Union to let them be used here again. It's up to us to stop this madness -- if we continue to poison our pollinators, the hedgerows, fields and fruit trees of this country will end up silent.

There's no time to lose. Our community rallied in massive numbers to win the EU ban, and now let’s build a giant buzz to protect our bees again! -- sign the petition and spread the word.
