Another Threat to All of Us

We will all starve or become diseased if we don't have access to plentiful quantities of good healthy plant food. Please sign this petition to tell Bayer and Syngenta to drop their lawsuits against the European Community which has temporarily banned the use of their bee-killing pesticides in Europe. We are all in this together! Here is a link:

I saw a segment on one of those investigative reporting shows about the pesticides here in Canada killing the bees.

My husband and I were discussing this issue ... And we've actually noticed the lack of bees in our yard - on the flowers in spring/summer. - - when we were kids - bees were all over the place - what a difference in just 35-40 years.

It's scary!!

Thanks for posting Don.

Thanks, Don

Signed - thanks for letting us know about this! Bees are critical to our survival. I think I've read that 30-40% of all plant-based foods we eat are pollenated by bees. And I think that figure would go up if we counted the plants that we feed livestock and plants that help to restore nutrition to the soil (e.g., alfalfa, clover, etc.).
