Bee Pollen, Nature’s Multivitamin
It’s a great day to remember that a planet without honeybees isn’t one we want to live in. Pesticides, colony collapse disorder, and habitat loss all pose a threat to the hardworking pollinators, which is why all of us need to step up.
- Bees pollinate 70 of the 100 crop species that feed 90% of the world. The produce aisle at your local grocery store would be half-empty without the bees.
- All of the other creatures that eat those plants would also be in danger (as would the animals that eat them)
- We would lose around $30 billion a year in crops. That means job loss, food loss, and a scarcity of fresh produce.
