We are looking at Colony Collapse, and up to 25% of our food supply depends on honey bees to pollinate. The Obama Administration has stated that they will conduct a 5 year study. By that time, it will be too late.
Quoting from the New York Times article:
"The explosive growth of neonicotinoids since 2005 has roughly tracked rising bee deaths."
Mr. Obama, we voted for you, and we need you to lead on this. We know that you have a lot of pressure from industry. However, industry, as we already know, profits immensely from these unsustainable corporate farming practices. Industry would profit as well from the bee colonies destruction.
