Give the EPA the Bees Knees for Ignoring Rampant Bee Colony Collapse

Today, I want to also draw your attention to a critical issue affecting bees, which of course produce wonderful honey and serve as pollinators for many other crops, called our food source. Colony collapse disorder is a sudden die off of bees, which is affecting at least 30% of our U.S. honey bee population. Scientists and food activists are pointing the finger at the widespread use of pesticides, which kill not only insects but these precious workers in the fields, the bees.
Last month, for the second time, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) refused to intervene to stop the use of the pesticide clothianidin, which causes harm to pollinators. The agency is taking public comments on their inaction until Sept 22, 2012. Please take the time today to give the EPA your comment, urging them to take action to protect the bees from further harm.
In addition, please submit your Public Comment here. Act now, because we need to get their attention. The EPA is not scheduled to review clothianidin again until 2018. By then, it could be too late for the bees and the one third of our food crops, bees play a crucial role in pollinating.
The EPA says 1/3 of our bees dying, is not an emergency... What planet are they on?
