Washington, DC–(ENEWSPF)–June 25, 2014. Following last weekâs celebration of âNational Pollinator Weekâ and a presidential memorandum mandating federal action on bees, the first wide-scale scientific analysis has been released that links two classes of pesticides to declining bee populations. Twenty-nine scientists representing many disciplines reviewed over 800 peer-reviewed publications on the impacts of systemic pesticides, and are recommending more restrictions on neonicotinoid pesticides. This report is the single most comprehensive study of neonicotinoids ever undertaken.
