It's not just bee's, shortage in butterflies as well. I was talking to a family member who is high up in the council near us and she was saying that in the UK they have been having meetings about this and if the bees die, we would have to find a way to pollinate all the plants our selves and they estimate that would cost £1.8 billion a year to do.
Makes no sense in using pesticides on our food to kill bugs off when we need them, as crazy as it seems it almost feels like someone is wanting us to kill our selves off.
but who? that is the question.
