-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------In my opinion, the most effective website would be the website [Beyond Pesticides] because
despite the fact that it was only discussing Pesticides in relation to Pollinators, it gave an

extremely detailed overview of how the Pollinators are affected and what the average person can
do to prevent the decline in Pollinators.
