Hi everyone,
I thought I?d post to the forum about the Neal's Yard Remedies Bee Lovely campaign, to help save the population of UK bees. I'm interested to know if you've heard of it and what you think?
You can find out more by googling 'bee lovely' but as a brief overview, I'm working with Neal's Yard Remedies on the campaign in line with their new ?Bee Lovely? organic beauty product range (launching later this month). We're campaigning to stop the use of deadly neonic pesticides which are killing bees all over the world, and are responsible for the loss of 80% of beehives in the UK.
To do this, we need 100,000 UK signatures on our Bee Lovely petition (which you can find on Facebook and via Google). We?ve made a good start but need help to get more signature by the end of November so we can present it to parliament and request the British government join France, Germany, Italy and Slovenia in banning these powerful pesticides, and help protect our precious bees.
We hope that everyone on Mumsnet can help! :)
We would love people to head over to Neal?s Yard Remedies? Facebook page to sign the petition, and promote the cause via our #beelovely hashtag across Twitter.
