For the people’s initiative “Save the bees” is vigorously stirred the drum. A action of the forest kindergartens in front of the Murnau town hall, however, was the view of circle farmer’s wife, Christine Singer. Your accusation: The Small would be exploited.
Murnau – Slowly, the morning sun is in the Murnau pedestrian zone. The first customers are already on the way. Also, the information booth of the coalition for action, Garmisch-Partenkirchen has already been opened. “Let’s Bee Friends” is in colorful letters on a sign stuck in a snow hill. So quiet it’s still in the shopping street, so colorful, the Drive the info is around. There have appeared a lot of little “bees”. It is the children of the forest kindergartens in Murnau and Uffing, have dressed up especially for this purpose. Together with their parents, they distribute leaflets, small seed bags, and homemade beeswax ship. In this way, you want to make even more passers-by on the people’s desire for attention. Most of the people staying are.
But the opponent of the people’s desire and the action are critical. Christine Singer, circle peasant of the Bavarian farmers ‘ Association from Hofheim, can only shake his head. “I find it impossible that so young children are being exploited,” she says. “An objective decision-making ability in this age is not possible.”
Linda Bleß, the mother of a three-year-old forest child and the initiator of the action, sees that nothing is Wrong. “Of course, we have explained to our children’s children, what it is,” she says. “It is clear that we can’t go into the political Detail.”
But that’s exactly where the Singer is the Problem. “The ordinary citizen from the street is not even aware of what’s coming with this bill to the farmers. He is poor and one-sided information.“ The sensitivity of insect mortality was known to her. And that something urgently had to be done, could not argue. Everything on the backs of the farmers carry, keeps you up the wrong way. The increasing stigmatization, thus, is considered a Singer with great concern. How far this can go, came to her on the last circle Association meeting to ears. “Because the farmer’s children came crying home because they were abused in school, that they can kill the bees,” she says. “We just live with this Flora and Fauna. It is our concern to get.“
With the new bill Singer sees the existence of the peasants under threat. Voluntary measures, which are currently subsidized, would then to the unpaid duty. And who is to decrease the required organic Vegetables at an acceptable price, is a mystery. For this people’s children desire to advertise, and know nothing about all of this, Singer is inappropriate.
“It was the parents of the children that came to us. They wanted to support in this way our concern,“ explains Raphael Mankau, spokesman for the action Alliance. “The action is just as great circles. It acts like a Magnet.“ Mankau is sure that the forest children know what is at stake. “Your closeness to nature is extremely large.” The fears of the farmers, he can certainly relate to that. But: “The draft law is, however, to look for the preservation of peasant agriculture.”
