Between 2000-2012 forest the size of UK, France, Germany, Spain, Portugal, Belgium, Netherlands, Italy, Switzerland, Austria, Poland, Ireland and Czech Republic combined was deforested. No sane species would do this! #SilentEarth
A great petition, this. Madness that shop shelves are still stocked with chemical killers when our struggling #pollinators need help instead. Dave Goulson Joel Ashton The Wildlife Trusts Buglife Plantlife #SilentEarth

Lee Schofield Beautiful meadow in Herefordshire, full of clovers, etc, and almost nothing - one or two hover flies, one common blue butterfly 😢 #silentearth

Cause and effect? This morning the field adjoining ours was sprayed. This evening our house is full of dead, dying and disoriented bees ...

George McGavin Apart from my big mason bee house, the garden is silent. ONE carder #bee so far. No #hoverflies . A single common blue butterfly. This salvia is usually heaving by now - now, nothing. Cold weather? #SilentSpring #SilentEarth Dave Goulson
Trying to help a lady solve her 'pest' problem on her Wisteria. I suggested she encourages natural predators like Ladybirds & Parasitoid Wasps by creating habitat & not spraying chemicals. Everyone else's suggestion - Spray them. Arrrghhh This is why we have 'pests' #SilentEarth
“An estimated three million tons of #pesticides now going to the world environment every year.”
Reading “Silent Earth” from David Goulson. Highly recommend!

One chapter in, and I’m ready to put my life on the line for insects. 🐛🐝🦋🐞
Please read this book. Then pass it on.
There’s a whole chapter on practical actions at all levels we simply MUST take to help save life on Earth.

According to Dave Goulson in his book #silentearth one monthly flea treatment for a medium dog can kill 60 million honeybees. Scary. #honeybees #extinction #linocut #linoprint #printmaking #fleatreatment #saveourbees #insects
I’m very excited: Silent Earth is published today!
Everyone can get involved in saving our insects – find out how inside!
