Scotts Miracle-Gro, a major global pesticide company, just announced it will end the use of 3 dangerous bee-killing chemicals by 2017, while phasing out neonics in eight of its garden products by 2021.
I can’t stress this enough -- this is a HUGE deal. It is the first major pesticide company to do this, and proof that our years of dedicated campaigning is paying off.
Now we are setting our sights on one of Miracle-Gro’s biggest competitors, Bayer. With Bayer’s AGM days away, we are going to take our message right to its AGM in Germany to make sure it follows suit and protects the bees.
