This has been a mystery for years. Bee poppulations have also been dropping for about a decade now. Hopefully we can find out the reason soon.
This bee-thing is a plot by bee-owners to force other people to pay, and to beg the government for protection from competition.
This is a big
real problem. Numbers
have been declining for years but increased use of pesticides have escalated the situation.
Nerve-agent pesticides (neonicotinoids) are being blamed around the world for the sharp decline in bee numbers.
There was a petition to ban the use of these pesticides across Europe and that was successful. (UK voted against the ban but were outvoted by other EU countries). The ban isn't in effect in America though, sadly.
There has been an initiative in the UK to send out free packs of wildflower seeds for people to scatter in their gardens or just wherever they can. You guys should do this in America too. Every little action helps, save the bees! Fuck Mosanto!
