Can Humans survive without honey bees?

Question

If they suddenly become extinct, the plants and flowers, trees will die of and they produce alot of oxygen, would humans find it difficult to live and die off soon?

Answer 1

according to Einstein humans die 4 years later after bee extinction

Answer 2

bees are pollinating agents for plants to bear fruits

...so i guess we can still survive but maybe we have less fruits to eat....

....plants can still be propagated by other ways such as root or stem cuttings..(not by seeds only)...

...besides we are omnivores....

Answer 3

The honey bee isn't the only pollinator around. I think other bees are even more important for this job.

Answer 4

well, first off, the 5 billion dollar fruit industy will go right out and it will strongly affect our economy causing a recession. If this were to happen now, the u.s would be in great trouble as we are already in a rescession and this could lead to a new depression.

But, there is some hope; wind can help self pollinate plants, also, anything such as deer or humans, who rub up against the pollen are carriers and can transport and fertilize without knowing. So, yes.. life would be very difficult becasue it would not only affect a loss of plant life, but it could also hurt the working american and all the lost jobs/pay cuts.

So, we will have to see.....
