<![CDATA[Over 75% of the world’s food crops need pollinators.]]>Over 75% of the world’s food crops need pollinators.

Yet, bee populations have dropped globally over recent decades due to:

🔸 habitat loss
🔸 climate change
🔸 excessive use of pesticides

Our fertiliser plan promotes healthier ecosystems, which are essential for bees’ survival.

On this , we urge governments, organisations and citizens to help save these precious creatures.

We need to keep our bees busy and well!

To start saving pollinators we first need to drop the idea that only bees are pollinators. Then we need to educate about native pollinator conservation. And then we need to ban pollinator extinction biocides.

Just a moment...

Another great post in that that is the and the community manager of this account acting as a track manager.

Does the community manager ever heard about the Bayer - Monsanto rigged buying to past approval of the carcinogenic .

Yeah! Your fleas became giants again. 😒

EU-Kommission will Pestizide unbefristet zulassen

Die EU-Kommission will bestimmte Pflanzenschutzmittel wie beispielsweise Glyphosat künftig zeitlich unbegrenzt zulassen. Die bislang erforderlichen regelmäßigen Neuzulassungen sollen laut einem Gesetzesvorschlag aus Brüssel abgeschafft werden.

Do you post similar things to suggest facebook, google or instagram are out of touch with reality, too?

Or, 🤔 Since you post it on mastodon, you want to show how you give in to silliness?

AND lack of biodiversity due to large fields with one single type of vegetables.
Imagine of eating one single kind of food for your life; that would be a very poor nutritional diet -> not a long life.

The Mastodon version would be "I installed Linux on this dandelion in my organic permaculture farm and set up a bash script that automatically extracts nectar every 6 hours"

Also, the bee is neurodivergent

It's just the LinkedIn meme ham-fistedly shoehorned onto Mastodon.

Political orgs trying to communicate online are hilarious. Can you imagine any other language where they'd go "we don't need a translator, I'll just make similar noises and they'll accept us as one of their own"?

While I support this initiative – who doesn't want less pesticides, cleaner waterways, more nature – is about all the other bees, whose numbers are plummeting hand in hand with habitat loss. Honeybees don't need saving; that would be like saying we have to save the birds and we start with the chicken.
