*[Enwl-eng] The “bee-friendly” scam

[ENWL]

                        Are garden stores selling us “bee-friendly” plants 
that are actually drenched in bee-killing chemicals?

                        We’ve had a tip-off that this practice is rampant --  
but we urgently need lab tests to be sure.

                        Can you chip in $2 to help uncover this scandal?

            We’ve just had word that so-called “bee-friendly” plants sold in 
garden centers and supermarkets are doused in toxic chemicals made by Bayer.

            If Bayer’s shady behaviour is anything to go by, it’s highly 
likely this is true. We urgently need to gather the evidence to persuade 
garden centers to stop cooperating with Bayer’s toxic business.

            We’ve planned out an undercover investigation and found a 
specialist lab that can test these plants for pesticides. If it turns out 
these “bee-friendly” plants are really bee-killers, we’ll blow this scandal 
wide open -- and we’ve got journalists on call to help us do just that.

            Can you chip in to cover the cost of the investigation?

            Gardens, allotments and balconies are such an important food 
source for bees and other pollinators. If our gardens are no longer safe 
from Bayer's neonics, the bees have nowhere left to turn.

            So we need to start this investigation right now. Armed with the 
evidence we can create a media blitz and pressure garden centers to stop 
selling plants doused in bee-killing pesticides.

            Bayer will be furious. The company is hemorrhaging money after 
you got most of its pesticides banned in Europe. With your help, we'll make 
gardens a no-neonics zone, and take-away Bayer's chance to make more money 
from killing bees in Europe.
