Scientists researching Colony Collapse Disorder have determined that at the present rate of depopulation, bees as a species will become extinct by 2035.
This also means that there will be a drastic reduction in the number of fruit and vegetable species as well because many of them depend on these little pollinators to reprocreate. Ours will end up a much poorer and unhealthier world without the vital link of life that bees provide for free.
