Honey bees are dying off at unprecedented rates and pesticides are a clear causal factor.

A legal petition was filed with EPA, calling on the agency to make use of its emergency powers to protect bees from a pesticide called clothianidin that's harming to bees.

In the next two weeks, it's expected that EPA will decide whether this threat constitutes the "imminent hazard" necessary for the agency to take emergency action to suspend registration of this toxic pesticide.

Sign the petition below to tell EPA that the threat to bees is very real, and they need to take emergency action!
