Are you freaking out about the bees?

Question

I am! So I guess humans are going to die soon because the bees are weird. They're dieing off in big numbers and that means no more pollination for plants. Tell me everything you know about this. Has this happened before? Is this a big deal? Or am I paranoid?

Answer 1

The problem is caused by microscopic mites.

Answer 2

no you are not paranoid

people in general do not know or believe just how much all life on this planet in inter related

they have lived for too long too far from nature to see the conections

they once sprayed for the mosquitos on the banks of the Danube ,and all of the life in the woods disapeared .

if kids (like they do in mexico )kill all the birds and iguanas around the cities and towns

their food goes walking around with out restraint and we get plagues of caterpillars

these are just two examples

insects have very important roles to play both as a food source and for polination .
