Joseph,

Thank you for taking action to save the bees. Together, we can help regulate and remove harmful pesticides like neonicotinoids from our ecosystems, and let the bees flourish once again.
Please take a moment to share this campaign with your friends.

Thank you again,

At the Story of Stuff, we're rewriting the narrative that has us overworked and trashing the planet. We're working to build a world that is healthy, sustainable, and just.
A message from Joseph Raglione:
 We Homo Sapiens have created tools and guns and ways to murder each other and as many other species as have the temerity to exist or stand in our way! We are foolishly and ignorantly proud of our so-called "industrial progress" and that industrial progress has been destroying and not enhancing life on Earth. If it were the other way around I would not feel the need to repeat  these words!
 I now ask you, again, on behalf of the other species who cannot ask to please create and enforce stronger anti-pollution laws and to actively work to save the natural environment of this planet!
 Please create and place economic value on products that help nature and do not destroy nature. Please reward those humans who create life enhancing products and stop economically rewarding those who create products that pollute and harm life on Earth! That would include guns and bombs, fossil fuels and gas burning cars and destructive chemicals and industrial products that do us all harm! Please slow or stop the Media advertising of such destructive products! 

 We humans are highly intelligent and we can use our collective imaginations for creating cities filled with flower gardens and trees and roof-top green-houses. Cities filled with Bicycle paths and Electric vehicles and quick non-polluting mass transit systems. We certainly can use our half-empty office buildings at night for creating living spaces for homeless people and for plants and even for small animals. We must ban the internal combustion engines from our city streets and destructive fossil fuels and polluting chemicals from our lives. We do have wonderful alternatives ready for use.

 We can improve our mass transit systems and we must lower Electric Bus fares for the poor and elderly who are the ones  left out and behind when you speak about growing the middle class.
We can create buildings that allow for quiet rooms where people could go and sit and relax without the mind disturbing incessant noise now permeating large shopping malls.
You can even place shopping-malls under ground and place large Geodesic Domes filled with plants and trees and small animals above the shopping malls.
You can do all of these wonderful things or you can do nothing and watch as nature, now polluted by humans, silently turns against life on Earth. 
Thanks for reading this letter!
