                                Dear friends,  
                                Millions of bees are dying, and their homes are being devastated. But in weeks, the EU could vote for a bill that would protect their habitat and give bees and the nature they need a fighting chance to recover – creating a blueprint for other parts of the world.

                                Conservative politicians are siding with the pesticide industry and other powerful interests against a strong law. In conversations with parliamentarians, we’re hearing that we might lose this fight – as politicians seem to think that people don’t care about this issue.

                                What happens in Europe matters beyond the EU's borders. With bees under pressure across the globe, let's show our leaders how much we care!  

                                Pass a strong law to save bees and their homes!  
                                Bees and other pollinators are struggling because of toxic chemicals, because their habitats are being destroyed, because of droughts, the climate crisis, pollution, and more.

                                And it’s not just bees: researchers are sounding the alarm, saying more than 75% of Earth's land areas are in poor condition. Our forests, rivers, and grasslands… it’s all under pressure. That's why this ambitious bill, aimed at healing the lands and waters that have degraded, and restoring life to them, is such a game-changer!

                                MEPs are voting on this bill in the next weeks, and Germany and Spain are two of the key governments that can help us win! A global call joining voices from across Europe shows that wherever we are, we're watching their moves closely. So let’s be hundreds of thousands, and we’ll deliver our call right to crucial lawmakers in Brussels this month. And to brighten the deal for nature, we’ll bring along bee-friendly wildflower seeds for every signature! Sign now:  
                                Pass a strong law to save bees and their homes!  
                                The Avaaz community has stood up for bees again and again. Our 5-million strong appeal to save the bees was one of the biggest in our history. For the forest birds, the grassland butterflies, the urban bees, and for the millions of people who call Europe home, let’s go all-out and push the EU to move decisively towards a thriving natural world - connected to, rather than separated from us.

                                With fierce hope and determination,

                                Adela, Alice, Luis, Antonia, Isabella, Anneke, and the entire Avaaz team
