Towards a bee-friendly agriculture for a healthy environment<\/strong><\/h4>\n

In the European Union, bees are disappearing, birds have stopped singing in our farmlands and the number of farmers is decreasing at an alarming pace. The current model of intensive farming has led to a massive decline of nature: butterflies and insects have disappeared, once common birds are becoming rare. At the same time citizens are continuously exposed to toxic synthetic pesticides and our rivers and streams polluted.
\nWe, as citizens from all over Europe, are rising up against this industrialised agricultural system that currently leads to the collapse of biodiversity, the disappearance of small and family farms and asterile landscapes. As a civil society coalition, we have a clear vision of a better way forward: a clean way of producing our food, without agrochemicals, healthier for us and nature, and with vibrant rural communities \u2013 safeguarding the rich diversity of European food and agricultural traditions.<\/strong><\/p>\n

We are now coming together from all over the European Union to form the European Citizens\u2019 Initiative \u201cSave bees and farmers! Towards a bee-friendly agriculture for a healthy environment\u201d. By collecting one million signatures throughout the European Union by 30 September 2021, we will give voice to those people who want the system to change to benefit us all: farmers, consumers and the environment.<\/strong><\/p>\n
