Honey bees are your Friends

[TBH]

A third of the worlds crops are pollenated by honey bees but the honey bees are dying. Wur all doomed I tell ye.http://images.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=http://www.iliketolearn.com/Images/emoticon.gif&imgrefurl=http://www.iliketolearn.com/&h=70&w=70&sz=16&hl=en&start=4&um=1&tbnid=RrEgTgkNtFPaoM:&tbnh=68&tbnw=68&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dmad%2Bemoticon%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26c lient%3Dfirefox-a%26rls%3Dorg.mozilla:en-GB:official%26sa%3DG

OK - not honey bees - but these people are trying to save bumblebees.

This quote from Albert Einstein is a reminder of how important bees are -

“If the bee disappeared off the surface of the globe then man would only have four years of life left. No more bees, no more pollination, no more plants, no more animals, no more man.” Albert Einstein (http://www.celsias.com/blog/2007/03/29/european-bees-taking-a-nosedive/)
