Bees and other pollinating insects are needed to help pollinate crops. If a crop flowers, it needs insects to pollinate it. We all need bees. Honey is great, but it's not the most important thing about bees.
1/3 of the worlds crops uses bees for pollination. We are endangering Nuts, fruits, many vegetables, seeds, cotton, and oil from crops that require pollination.
I think it maaaaaaay be GMO/pesticide activity. GMO is often used to put the pesticide IN the plant, so it's there, root-to-pollen - I'm suspecting. It may be a while before that is studied and/or admitted though.
Per Harvard study, it's pesticides. Our friend Monsanto strikes again.
This makes the most sense. I wouldn't go so far as to call it a conspiracy but they of course don't care about pollination from bees.
I think pesticides are responsible for at least a small amount of a lot of "newer" diseases (e.g., chronic pain, autism, inflammatory diseases) but no one is going to do the research on this.
60% in one year. This still blows my mind.
