This 11-year-old girl kicks so much butt! Mikaila Ulmer has started a company called Beesweet Lemonade. 10% of the company's profits go to honeybees research. Honeybees are dying off, but not if this 11-year-old has anything to say about it. Oh yeah, did we mention she is only 11? So awesome!

Beyond Toxics & Oregon Wild are hosting a film showing of BEHIND THE EMERALD CURTAIN.

Thursday, April 7th - 6:30 to 8:30 PM, City Lights Cinemas in Florence, Oregon. Seating is limited. Reserve a FREE ticket today!http://www.beyondtoxics.org/events/

The film exposes how Oregon’s laws for logging on private lands are harming clean water and healthy rivers. Rather than featuring actors telling you everything is fine, the film will star:·

-Watersheds 80 to 90 percent clearcut·

-People collapsing from pesticides drifting into their homes and health clinics·

-Landslides from logging on steep, unstable slopes·

-Drinking water contaminated·

-Clearcutting through small streams with mythical buffers

Many pet keepers don’t realize they are exposing their four-legged family members to environmental toxins like pesticides & herbicides. It’s important to remember that these chemical residues can be tracked indoors on pet paws, thus contaminating surfaces within the home.

Bee brave and lose the pesticides this spring!

Five North American species of wild bees are suffering severe population losses and two are on the brink of extinction! This is largely due to the use of neonicotinoids (pesticides) in gardens during spring & summer.
