Experts are warning us of a second “silent spring”, as the numbers of farm birds have been decimated all over Europe.
Scientists believe a key culprit are the same pesticides which are also killing our bees.
But we have a real chance to fight back. We've just secured a meeting with the European Commission who has the power to protect our birds and widen restrictions on these toxic pesticides. The meeting is two weeks away -- and we need to do everything we can until then to make sure they listen to us.
With your help we’ll blanket key news sites read by the EU Commission with ads ahead of our meeting showing that people all over Europe want the Commission to protect the birds and the bees.
Can you chip in to protect the birds and the bees from toxic pesticides?
