Hi,



This week, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is expected to rule on
the fate of carbofuran, a deadly pesticide that has killed millions of birds
and poses significant human health risks. With so much at stake, now is the
time to take action.



I just took action online and I hope you will, too. It's easy just go to
the website below and ask the EPA to remove this deadly product from the
market:

The pesticide carbofuran is highly toxic to birds. In fact, just one granule
of carbofuran is enough to kill a songbird.



Carbofuran has killed millions of birds, including hundreds of bald eagles
and thousands of waterfowl. Birds from more than 100 other species have also
been killed, including eastern bluebirds, northern pintails, American robins
owls, swallows, grackles, killdeer and kestrels



The EPA must decide whether to allow the continued use of carbofuran by this
Thursday (August 3rd), so please take action right away:

We don't have much time and we need to get the word out, so please forward
this message to anyone and everyone you know who cares about protecting our
wildlife.



Thanks.
