The Eternal Flame Posted December 5, 2019 #1 Share Posted December 5, 2019 Dec 05, 2019 More than half of the bee species on Belgian territory are threatened with extinction or gone, according to the BELBEES scientific project. Most bees are classified as ‘threatened with extinction’ (33%), as ‘no longer present’ in Belgium (12%) or as ‘almost threatened’ (7%). This is the first evaluation of the Belgian bee population in 26 years. https://www.brusselstimes.com/all-news/belgium-all-news/82217/over-half-of-belgiums-bees-are-gone-or-endangered-species/ 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoofGardener Posted December 5, 2019 #3 Share Posted December 5, 2019 (edited) Colony Collapse disorder ? We need to get to the bottom of this FAST. Forget global warming. Bees pollinate the bulk of our agricultural crops. This is SERIOUS @The Eternal Flame's quotation is correct. We NEED bees. Otherwise we are talking about a world-wide collapse in our agricultural crop production, followed by mass starvation.
