Save the bee population at your place
 
Hi -

"Once the bees have left the earth, man will have four years left on the planet."


The above statement is a paraphrase of a quote Albert Einstein made as he approached his death in 1955. The importance of bees' role in pollination within the food chain has been understood for quite some time. But the eeriness of this statement, made over 50 years ago, is that over the past two years many bee populations around the world have declined dramatically.


Bees pollinate vast amounts of crops, flowers and plants necessary for the food chain to flourish. Einstein may have been referring to the possibility that man may not be able to grow adequate crops to feed the world without pollination. There would also be other disruptions in the food chain as feed for farm animals would be greatly impacted, and plants in general would suffer.


In many areas of the world, bee populations have declined by 50 percent or more. No specific cause for this drop has been identified, though infections, viruses, pollution and pesticides have all been implicated.
