Link Between Disappearing Bees and Biodiversity?

In the post I made yesterday about Bees and GM, Dr. John Blatchford left a comment with a link to some of the articles he’s published on the subject. These are not the typical sort of scientific articles you normally see, these are short, to the point and very easy for anyone to understand.

He makes a good argument for the problem of Colony Collapse Disorder being a general biodiversity issue, rather than directly related to GM crops. He also suggests the answer to the problem may not lie with scientists, but rather with the bee keepers themselves, who are the ones more likely to be able to observe changes in their hives over time.
