É por isso
que precisamos intensificar agora o nosso plano para salvar as abelhas. Nas
próximas três semanas, é preciso mostrar o apoio público maciço para a
proibição para pressionar a UE a ficar forte e mostrar aos investidores da
Bayer de que há um custo para ignorar a ciência.
Ilídio,
In just 3 weeks, Bayer could succeed in defeating the
bees' best chance of survival -- by overturning Europe's landmark ban on the
pesticides that are killing them.
Increasing scientific evidence, including that behind
the European ban, shows that Bayer's neonics are behind the global bee die-off.
But despite the evidence and huge public pressure, Bayer is refusing to drop
its lawsuit against the European ban -- telling SumOfUs in a letter that the
decision was "rushed" and that it that undermines Bayer's "legal
certainty".
The European ban is due to go into force on December 1
-- but not if Bayer gets its way. If they succeed in forcing the EU to drop its
ban, it won’t just be a setback for bees in Europe. It could mean the end of
attempts to save the bees all over the world from these deadly pesticides.
That's why we need to step up now with our plan to
save the bees. In the next 3 weeks, we need to show massive public support for
the ban to push the EU to stand strong and show Bayer's investors that there's
a cost to ignoring science. If we don't, then the bees' best hope could die
with them in 3 weeks' time.
Can you stand with the bees now and chip in $1 to fund
this plan?
We all know the bees as a key part of the food chain.
Bees are responsible for pollinating over 30% of world’s food supply, and they
help generate over $20 billion in economic activity in the US alone. It’s not
an exaggeration to say we owe our prosperity and even our survival to millions
of bees.
That's why we need to act now. We need to keep a lot
of our plan under wraps -- we don’t want to let our corporate foes know what
we’re planning to do. If we reveal our plans in advance, Bayer, Syngenta, and
their cronies are going to work hard to thwart them -- and we've already been
threatened with corporate lawsuits for campaigning to save the bees. But we'll
plan on rolling out things like prominent, public-facing stunts or ads outside
Bayer or European Commission HQs, bringing on legal superstars to get the
public into the courtroom, and keeping up the pressure on the retailers who
sell Bayer's poisons.
Bayer's plan is clear: they'll fight tooth and nail to
overturn this landmark ban, knowing that even if they fail, they'll terrify
European officials and make sure they don't renew the ban in two years' time,
and scare the rest of the world into inaction. That's why it's so crucial we
stand up now: if we don't keep showing the depth of public support for saving
the bees, companies and governments around the world will conclude that there's
no public pressure for action.
If we all come together now, we can save the bees'
last hope. Can you chip in just $1 now to stand up to Bayer's bullying?
We’ve been right at the front of the global campaign
to save our bees. Over 260,000 of us have already demanded that Bayer and
Syngenta drop the lawsuit. We also came together to fight them at a huge
independent garden store show in Chicago, where Bayer and other pesticide firms
were out in force. Hundreds of thousands of us also took action to demand that
big stores like Lowe’s and Home Depot stop selling the bee killing chemicals.
Now we need to step up and defend the European ban and our plan will help us do
that.
Thanks for all you do,
Paul, Martin, Angus, Rob, and the team at SumOfUs.org
