Friends of Bowling Park

Pesticides are everywhere, they’re in playgrounds, parks and in our local areas - and it’s killing our pollinators and insects. In the past 20 years there’s been a 60% decline in the UK’s flying insect population and their decline affects all of us - it’s putting our food supply and the UK’s nature and biodiversity at risk.

Like pollinators, every small action can lead to big changes. Please join us in signing a Greenpeace petition to have the government:

1. Ban pesticide use in our local areas
2. Promote wildflower growing and pollinator health initiatives
3. Ensure the UK does not import anything that was produced by failing to meet UK standards on pesticide use
4. Not allow exports that contribute to pollinator harm by sending abroad toxic pesticides which are banned here in the UK
