Bjorn Lomborg, need I say more.

The way to do that is Bjorn Lomborg

At least, his numbers are in "ballpark":

Bee losses for the 2011/2012 winter were 22 percent. This past winter’s losses are slightly higher than the previous 6-year average loss of 30.5 percent.

AS usual I wonder where you get the numbers from, actual peer reviewed studies come to higher numbers, and that only for the winter losses.

But I guess we all eat with our ears, give or take an inch.

Ok, lets see (from your link)
Our survey quantifies the extent of colony losses in the United States over the winter of 2007–2008.

What number do they put on the table?

As I said, ballpark: in B.Lomborg's "more than 30 per cent", and I linked to USDA ARS webpage (bit outdated (05/06/2013), nevertheless).
