Giant pesticide companies are trying to water down European protections against bee-killing chemicals.

Will you chip in £28 to launch an emergency campaign to stop Bayer and co. from killing our bees?

Donate £28 now

Cherry,

Imagine field after field of rolling countryside -- but not a bee in sight.

That’ll be the future if Bayer and its cronies keep soaking Europe with pesticides that harm our precious bees.

But there’s still hope for the bees -- it rests with you. This Monday, European lawmakers are voting on protection for the bees, and we need your help to win this vote!

A huge petition signed by hundreds of thousands of people will put pressure on EU politicians to save the bees -- but we need to mobilise grassroots support first!

Can you chip in £28 now for powerful adverts to make sure everyone across Europe hears about this crucial bee-saving vote?

Yes, I will chip in £28 to save the bees!

It’s simple, really. If the bees go, we won’t be able to feed the planet. But Bayer only cares about its bottom line -- its lobbyists are working around the clock to undermine these plans to save the bees from harmful pesticides.

Now some European politicians are challenging the pesticide lobby and demanding that no pesticides are approved that harm our bees. Next week there’s a crucial vote and unless we act now, the pesticide industry will get its way.

With your help, we’ll rally more EU politicians to protect the bees and make sure the vote passes. And if this vote passes it will set a precedent for the rest of the world.

Alone, there’s not much we can do to stop Bayer and its giant lobbying army. But with the power of the entire SumOfUs community -- including you and millions of other committed, engaged members -- we’re unstoppable. Can you chip in to make this THE vote of 2019 that saves the bees?

There’s no time to waste -- will you chip in £28 to make this bee-saving petition huge?

You are part of a powerful coalition of European bee-saving organisations, from environmentalists to politicians and beekeepers. Once we can demonstrate how many hundreds of thousands of people like you care about the bees, we’ll send the petition directly to politicians and make sure it creates a media storm in key European outlets.

You already convinced the EU to ban three of the worst bee-killing neonicotinoid pesticides last year. So please, will you chip in to help keep our remaining bees safe?

Yes, I'll chip in £28 to save the bees.

Thanks for all that you do,
Rebecca and the team at SumOfUs
