Bees are Dissappearing

  America’s food supplies rely on pollination, but conventional farming practices are culpable in the loss of bees. Indigenous bees are easily found in the woods and lands surrounding organic farms. They are mysteriously missing from areas bordering conventional farms. Roving beekeepers are a growing business. They carry their hives from state to state to do the work indigenous species used to handle. But these worker bees are at risk as well. They’ve been dying off in record numbers from infections and poison from herbicides and pesticides sprayed on crops and trees.
   How will we grow crops when we kill off all the bees?
