We share our planet with nearly 20,000 known species of bees. Study of these creatures continues to reveal further connections between bees and people; Humanity does not stand apart from these petite wonders of our natural world. We rise and fall, together.
Partnerships between humans and bees attest to this reality. Our symbiotic relationships with the bees has evolved over thousands of years, and it is commonly stated; if they go, we go. As pollinators, bees are vital in our massive efforts toward food production, a fact we understand only too well, in California’s Central Valley. Habitat loss, rising temperatures, varroa mites, neonicotinoids and other pesticides --such combined factors threaten the stability of bee populations, increasing likelihood of Colony Collapse Disorder, and thus threatening food production --threatening our own populations, in turn.
