Tell Bayer-Monsanto to STOP selling toxic pesticides that hurt monarchs!

Milkweed is disappearing – and monarch butterflies along with it.

Toxic pesticides are wiping out baby monarchs only food source. We can’t let these precious pollinators disappear.

Bayer-Monsanto has spent years lying, denying, and distracting from the fact that its products are contributing to the pollinator crisis and harming people. It has manipulated science and invested in disinformation campaigns to trick the public into thinking products like Roundup are safe. But Bayer-Monsanto’s pesticide products are NOT SAFE.

It’s past time Bayer-Monsanto stops lying and stops selling pollinator-toxic pesticides.

Dear Bayer-Monsanto,

Many species of pollinators are on the brink of extinction. A key driver of their decline is the toxic pesticides your company manufactures, including neonicotinoids and glyphosate.

When bees are exposed to neonicotinoids, they can be killed directly, and their ability to forage, navigate, fight off pests and disease, and reproduce can be impaired. The EPA has found that the most commonly used neonicotinoids jeopardize the continued existence of over 200 threatened and endangered species.

Glyphosate has decimated milkweed, the only food source for monarch butterfly offspring. The EPA has determined that glyphosate is likely to injure or kill 93% of the plants and animals protected under the Endangered Species Act.

Pollinators are vital to many ecosystems. Without bees and other pollinators, over 180,000 species of plants would not thrive, including many that provide food and natural resources for humans. In fact, one in three bites of food requires pollination.

I am urging Bayer-Monsanto to take responsibility for the toxic impacts of its products and immediately stop selling neonicotinoids, glyphosate and other pesticides that pose risks to our pollinators.

Sincerely,
