Dear Reader,
Last week, 50,000 European citizens joined the movement to demand a
pesticide-free EU agriculture. This is great, and we’re growing very
fast now. But not fast enough, the deadline is approaching. We need more
power! How?

1. Make sure that at least 5 other persons sign
Ask friends and family to sign on the spot. Present the form to them and
let them do it right away. Don’t give up until you have collected at
least 5 other signatures. (More is even better, of course.)

2. Ask influencers and well-known people to help
On September 11, German chancellor candidate Annelena Baerbock
publicly signed the ECI, showing her support to bees and farmers. Reach
out to well-known people – musicians, actors, artists, politicians. Ask
them to express public support, tell the media and post it on their
social media. It’s now or never!

3. Collect signatures at a Climate demonstration in your country
All over Europe, Climate strikes and marches will take place, mostly on
September 24. This is a fantastic opportunity to collect more
signatures. A4 posters with QR-codes on protest signs are fantastic tools to catch people’s attention. You can also print paper forms and ask people to sign on the spot.
Is there no climate demonstration planned in your area? Look around for
other events on the themes of farming, food, bees and the environment to
collect signatures. Paper forms with signatures collected before the
deadline can be sent back to the return address printed on them even
shortly after September 30.

In our campaign team, we are working hard to spread the ECI as wide
as possible. Thank you for your financial support to help us doing so!
Together, let’s keep on informing people and organisations about the ECI
to collect a maximum of signatures.
