The U.S. Bans GMOs, Bee-Killing Pesticides in All Wildlife Refuges
Less then 1/2

The U.S. government is creating a safe place for bees on national wildlife refuges by phasing out the use of genetically modified crops and an agricultural pesticide implicated in the mass die-off of pollinators.

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s National Wildlife Refuge System manages 150 million acres across the country. By January 2016, the agency will ban the use of neonicotinoids, widely used nerve poisons that a growing number of scientific studies have shown are harmful to bees, birds, mammals, and fish. Neonicotinoids, also called neonics, can be sprayed on crops, but most often the seeds are coated with the pesticide so that the poison spreads throughout every part of the plant as it grows, including the pollen and nectar that pollinators like bees and butterflies eat.

Agreed! Gmo's and pesticides.


U.S. companies export pesticides that have been banned or restricted in the U.S. itself. Yet the food treated with said pesticide is imported back to the US. Talking about a reach around.
