Cincinnati, OH — A new billboard near the Cincinnati headquarters of Kroger (NYSE: KR) demands that the largest traditional grocery corporation in the U.S. stop using toxic pesticides linked to dramatic declines in populations of bees and other pollinators essential to food production. The billboard was placed by environmental organization Friends of the Earth as part of a larger campaign urging this and other top food retailers to help save pollinators by eliminating toxic pesticide use in their supply chains. The billboard, on the Fort Washington Way freeway, depicts a dead bumblebee and reads, “Kroger, say NO to toxic pesticides.”
