The Daily Green has published another article with an explanation of the causes and reasons for Colony Collapse Disorder.
This seems to confirm what I posted about a few weeks ago, and was announced by Spanish scientists. Now all that’s left to do is wait for the ‘official’ announcement from US scientists confirming they have discovered the cause in US bees.
The Daily Green article is interesting in that it goes a bit further and explains the underlying greed that caused the problem in the first place.
The good news in all of this is if the underlying problem has been discovered, it may be possible to do something about it!
This is such a worrying story, I have been following it for several weeks now. My Sister lives in the US, and tells me she has not seen a bee at all this year! frightening. Hope they find out for sure.. and soon.
Thank you so much for your tip! I have adjusted my comment controls… and have found so many more friends now!
