GARDENERS BEWARE! Are bee-killers lurking in your backyard? According to a new study by Friends of the Earth, theres a good chance they are. The report shows that more than half of the bee-friendly garden plants tested from Home Depot, Lowes and Walmart in 18 cities across the U.S. and Canada contained neonicotinoid (neonic) pesticides at levels that could harm or kill bees – with no warning to consumers. So, instead of helping bees in our gardens, we may be unknowingly poisoning them. Thousands of people like you and me have asked Lowes and Home Depot to stop selling bee-killing pesticides. Home Depot has responded, but Lowes remains silent. Thats why were joining forces with a national swarm of groups to put pressure on Lowes: Please join us in urging Lowes to stop selling bee-killing poisons immediately. soe.salsalabs/o/1/p/dia/action3/common/public/?action_KEY=382 ...
