<P>Billions of bees are dying -- and the <STRONG>EU just reapproved
a bee-killing pesticide for another 7 years</STRONG>...even though
it pledged to phase it out!</P>
<P>Over <STRONG>20% of bee species threatened with extinction are
native to Europe</STRONG> -- and it's frightening to imagine the
devastation <EM>another 7 years</EM> of this pesticide would
cause.</P>
<P>But thanks to a new law, people like you and me and NGOs can now
challenge pesticide approvals in the EU’s supreme court. If we win,
<STRONG>we could force the EU to ban this pesticide for
good.</STRONG></P>
<P>Our partners at PAN Europe are <STRONG>ready to go to
court</STRONG> -- but they need money to fund the case. <STRONG>If
we all chip in just a small amount, we can power their case and keep
campaigning to save the bees, before it’s too late.</STRONG></P>
<P style="TEXT-ALIGN: center"><STRONG>Vladimir, can you chip in to
save the bees?</STRONG></P>

<P style="TEXT-ALIGN: left">Endocrine disrupting pesticides like the
newly reapproved Cypermethrin are no joke. They’re not only toxic to
bees, but they can disrupt human hormones too, creating significant
health risks. And by getting into the food we eat, the water we
drink, and even the air we breathe, they can also impact unborn
fetuses!</P>
<P>The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) couldn’t have been
clearer about the danger of Cypermethrin. They went so far as to say
that <STRONG>NO mitigation measures could make it safe to
bees</STRONG>.</P>
<P>But instead of taking that advice, <STRONG>EU Member States
listened to the mighty pesticide lobby and voted to reapprove this
poison</STRONG>.</P>
<P>Our case is simple. The EFSA made a clear recommendation that the
EU Commission wanted to follow, but Member States -- and the
pesticide lobby! -- forced the hand of the Commission to do
something illegal. <STRONG>And now thanks to a new law, we can file
a suit with the EU's highest courts and do something about
it.</STRONG></P>
<P>PAN Europe knows how to win cases like this, and have time and
time again. But they <STRONG>need cash to file the lawsuit and cover
legal fees </STRONG>for the long battle ahead.</P>
<P style="TEXT-ALIGN: center"><STRONG>Can we count on you to chip in
to help save the bees?</STRONG></P>

in court before -- and won. Let’s do it again.</P><!-- ak.wysiwyg=off --><IMG alt=""
