The present bee population in North America is estimated to be only 10% of what it was just fifty years ago. Bees pollinate one third (i.e. 1/3) of all agricultural products used by humans on Earth. If bees become extinct, then there will be a mass starvation and famine in human society. The phenomenon of individual bees dying is new within the past twenty years. It is a symptom of the problem affecting bees called Colony Collapse Disorder. When I had a condo (1977 - 2010), bees would come to die on the front steps, one at a time. I would save them and use their bodies in assembly art projects. When I was a child in the 1960's, you NEVER saw individual bees laying dead on the ground. The fact that you see individual bees laying DEAD on the ground now is a very serious warning to humanity and to all the Earth. You have been warned. The future of the bees is the future of man. "Prepare for doom."
