Honeybees disappearing . . . IF . . . it is a proven fact, that cell phones...?

Question

Are involved with the 'exterminating' of this necessary critter???

Will you give up using one? and revert to the older 'land line' phone?

Answer 1

If this were true, hopefully cell phones would be modified to not cause such interference or made illegal.  

Has cell phone use really been posited as a culprit for the disappearance of honeybees?

Answer 2

I would definitely like to see some research on this issue.  I have heard that bees will not fly near cell phone towers because it disturbs their internal navigation system (for lack of a better phrase).  

Without question, if it is confirmed that mobile phones are contributing to "colony collapse" I will stop using my cell phone.

Answer 3

I cannot use them because they give me migraines.  I had one once for two months and had a headache the entire time.  Then I read about a Swedish study that showed some people get migraines from them; I shut mine off, and my headache went away.

Naturally, all the research in the world will not stop Motorola from wargaming against legitimate science:

Take your pick: Do you want to use a landline or do you want infertility, brain cancer, and the loss of honey and countless types of vegetation?

Answer 4

Life would go on without cell phones.  We did just fine without them for hundreds of thousands of years.

Life would NOT go on without the bees.

I choose life without the annoying ring-tones over extinction.

Is that mother nature saying, "Can you hear me now?"

Answer 5

The brain works with electrical impulses.

What to cell phones give off? Electrical impulses.

Who can say how this may or may not affect our brains & bodies or that of bees.

Answer 6

Cell phones killing bees is another boogy man... It's kind of a cool rumor though and it's amazing what people will believe.

Answer 7

Go to fact or fiction web site. I think this is an urban myth.
