Join us in calling for a reduction in UK pesticide use!
Paul Hobson
Stop Killing Insects!
The UK and devolved Governments are consulting on a new draft National Action Plan for pesticides (NAP), which is designed to deliver on their commitments to reduce pesticide use, and identify areas where they can be more ambitious in the future.
Unfortunately, the current draft of the National Action Plan will fail to deliver! If insects are to have any hope of a safe and healthy recovery, we want to see changes - including a target around reducing the use of pesticides. Your views can help.
