Target: Ms. Stella Kyriakides, European Commissioner for Health and Food Safety
Goal: Protect pollinators such as bees and butterflies by banning the use of neonicotinoid pesticides in the European Union.
Neonicotinoid pesticides, chemicals known to target the central nervous systems of insects, have been linked to the decline of pollinators such as bees and butterflies. These pollinators are essential for the maintenance of biodiversity and ecosystem services, including the pollination of crops that are vital for human food production.
The European Union has already taken steps to limit the use of neonicotinoid pesticides. However, further action is needed to protect pollinators and ensure the long-term health of our ecosystems.
By taking action to protect pollinators, we can safeguard the biodiversity of our ecosystems and ensure the long-term sustainability of our food production. Sign below and demand that Ms. Stella Kyriakides, European Commissioner for Health and Food Safety, take action and support this critical initiative.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear Ms. Kyriakides,
I am writing to urge you to ban the use of neonicotinoid pesticides in the European Union to protect pollinators such as bees and butterflies. These pollinators are essential for the maintenance of biodiversity and ecosystem services, including the pollination of crops that are vital for human food production.
Neonicotinoid pesticides have been linked to the decline of pollinators, and it is imperative that immediate action be taken to protect them. The European Union has already taken steps to limit their use, but further action is needed to ensure the long-term health of our ecosystems.
We urge you to ban the use of neonicotinoid pesticides in the European Union to protect pollinators and promote sustainable agriculture. By doing so, we can safeguard the biodiversity of our ecosystems and ensure the long-term sustainability of our food production.
Thank you for your attention to this critical issue.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]
