List of Foods We Will Lose if We Don’t Save the Bees

:(

all these crops are important.

man, it's like these companies want whole nutritious foods to disappear soo they can push their genetically modified crap on us.

firstly there is nothing wrong with the bees.

only america had a colony disaster last year due to the drought.

secondly bees dont do all the pollenation, infact ironically and evidently with america's low count on bees everything is pollenating just fine without them.

thirdly the bullshit about it being pesticides is another industry scam to try to destroy the competition.


welcome to reality op.

They are making the bees disappear and they are poisoning us, so that will make many of us disappear through health related illnesses. Nothing like population control at all levels.

Bees are dying all over the world from many different reasons.

Largest Honeybee Loss Ever Recorded In The United Kingdom

BEE APOCALYPSE NOW
Scientists discover what’s killing the bees and it’s worse than you thought

This is reality.

thats a load of bullshit.

there are no reported colony collapse' in the uk.

from your link

The British Beekeepers Association



It was the worst summer ever. I had my own bees starving to death in the summer. It is nothing to do with pesticides; bad weather is enough of an explanation. It’s not healthy for bees to be trapped in their hives during the summer. Some queen bees couldn’t get out to mate and confined bees are more likely to get nosema and viruses from the varroa mite” – Francis Ratnieks, professor of apiculture at University of Sussex

These figures are not surprising given the harsh winter and long cold spring which followed from an extremely poor summer last year. The National Bee Unit has continued to offer colony husbandry advice to beekeepers through these prolonged periods of inclement weather – Mike Brown, head of the NBU

Yes, and look at what I had said above those links.

"Bees are dying all over the world from many different reasons."

You stated there were no losses in the UK, I was showing you that there is. I did not state that is was from pesticides. My main concern is that they are dying.

Bees?

lol, bees will be the last thing on your mind when you are reduced to eating your children.

And that will not be that far away.

not many reasons, one. the weather and the bees will do just fine without your concern or woo woo propaganda.

and i have a feeling anyone will be going around in circles with any debate.

Thanks for the post, excellent info imho, however sadly most people don't seem to realize how screwed we will be once the bees are gone.
I'm in Eastern Ontario and I have hardly seen ANY bees this summer... normally my garden attract tons and tons of them. I've only had bumble bees and 1000 different varietys of wasps :(

I've been called a "Conspiracy Theorist" but did you just basically call me a "woo woo?" I've heard this term but you are the first one to apply it to me. Thank you!! I consider that an honor!

Aw, I don't want to argue with you. We are all humans trying to survive. It's morning over here and toast with honey on it sounds delicious!

We haven't seen many bees here in the southern part of the United States, actually I didn't see many when I was up by Canada either. I don't see as many butterflies or birds either.

Farmers are great people, but they are generally Republicans.

They don't understand what Monsanto is and they think that they are good science. They make their lives easier.

Even as our foods stop being excepted outside of the US, they are just working everyday, oblivious.

These are the people that we need to wake up.

Oh, "don't cry". I encourage to find trust we ourselves will survive. There's Always one that can make you move on.

The European honey bee is not a north American species. Why don't we worry about the bumble bees and any other native bees? Also stop moving bees around. And teaching farmers who need these bees for pollination to keep Hives on their farm. Plus my beans, tomatoes, zucchini, cucumber, bell peppers, peas, and jalapenos grew beautifully this year. So I guess then the bees are doing well in my neighbourhood. Although I've only seen a handful of them. And some bumble bees, and other little flying critters. Or is it farming's mono culture, GMO's, and pesticides that are most likely doing in the bees. Get greed out of our most important resource. And the problem will likely be solved.

look..many will have to go into fields and hand pollinate plants!

I included the European honey bee for our friend in the United Kingdom who did not think that bees were dying off in the UK by other means.

But I agree......

"The Illinois Ag Dept. illegally seized privately owned bees from renowned naturalist, Terrence Ingram, without providing him with a search warrant and before the court hearing on the matter, reports Prairie Advocate News."

"Behind the obvious violations of his Constitutional rights is Monsanto. Ingram was researching Roundup’s effects on bees, which he’s raised for 58 years. “They ruined 15 years of my research,” he told Prairie Advocate, by stealing most of his stock."

Bees ? Kill them all with fire !

they do that in india. not very efficient.

Ohio Valley here. My garden is buzzing all day. Good variety of bees. I grow only open pollinated. I believe bee populations are shrinking. But here all seems well.

it's not crops we will lose, it's our lives. “If the bee disappeared off the face of the earth, man would only have four years left to live.” ― Albert Einstein

NO COFFEE!!

siren2::scared::

That should be enough of a reason right there for wanting to save the bees! Just imagine our world if people could not drink coffee.

Twinikies

Why do you believe every word a man who only wrote a theory says? Here's a theory for you "Natural disasters are only caused by man's interference in nature". Now believe all the other bullshit I say from now on

wow, jealous much? you're no Einstein, but Einstein is. look up what year it was that he figured out things that you still don't understand to this day. keep flinging poo ya dumb jealous monkey.

Ive had some weird looking bees here in Idaho, some almost what we used to call "dirt bees" and they are much smaller than the honey bee.
I've been lucky to see some bees, real honey bees and I watch them on my sunflowers with awe.
Those moments are few and far in between now, but I know they are dying and leaving us at a great rate and this saddens me...

Peace
