I'm not sure what the consequences of this are, but it is a pretty big deal. Bees are responsible for pollinating a lot of plants, and if the bees are dying off, it could have devastating consequences for the food supply.

I'm not sure what the point of this article is. It's not like we're going to be able to do anything about it.

It also might not be that bad as believed.

I remember when I was younger, we were told about the killer bees were going to wipe out the modern world. Also, I was told that we would all be living on a beach or the sea because of global warming and the ozone hole lazering everything.
