The over-use of pesticides in our countryside is causing catastrophic harm to our soil, rivers, plants and wildlife, even the food we eat.
The impact of pesticides on our wildlife can be devastating. When fields are sprayed, animals can be poisoned by the residue that remains on their food and the harmful chemicals can contaminate nearby water sources.
With your support today, we can stop these toxic chemicals poisoning our natural world.
