We've been framed, I'll tell you... we're innocent!
Unless you've been hiding under a rock, the honey bees are dying off. It's going to be the end of us because we need bees to help pollinate plants, which provide us fruits and vegetables. The disappearance of bees is known as Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD).
There is no explanation or solution to this problem, but check out this flick "Vanishing of the Bees". It's a documentary that details the economic, political and ecological consequences of a dwindling world of honeybee population.
Actually there is an explanation and a simple solution and it all has to do with bee handling practices. Transporting bees to commercial greenhouses en masse is what is disrupting the colonies, but larger bee farms won`t stop because there is too much money in it.
ReplyDeleteSimple as that.
I like your pro-bee agenda. I am a big fan of the bee and I think part of colony collapse has to do with cell phone towers and microwave technologies. This summer I left a part of my yard to grow wild so that the bees had lots of wild flowers to get pollen from. I could watch that all morning in the summer sun. What?
ReplyDeletethe cell phone tower is a myth... I watched the documentary, they say it can be the cause of monoculture... reason being is that monoculture is unnatural in nature. Plus the use of pesticides.
