May 9, 2008 – Bee Emergency: Unexplained Mass Die-Off Hits German Hives

“In Germany’s bucolic Baden-Württemburg region, there is a curious silence this week. All up and down the Rhine river, farm fields usually buzzing with bees are quiet. Beginning late last week, helpless beekeepers could only watch as their hives were hit by an unprecedented die-off. Many say one of Germany’s biggest chemical companies is to blame.”

May 17, 2010 – Our bees are buzzing off. But why?

Over the past few years, honeybees have suddenly and inexplicably disappeared from colonies that once thrived across the northern parts of the American and European continents. A mysterious malaise has struck down the fittest and most able bees, laying waste to billions and leaving empty hives starved of once industrious workers. But we are no nearer understanding the exact cause of this carnage. http://news.bbc.co.uk/earth/hi/earth_news/newsid_8680000/8680500.stm

March 14, 2012 – Mass honeybee deaths now occurring worldwide, says UN
Learn more:

(NaturalNews) For several decades, colony collapse disorder (CCD) — a mysterious condition where entire bee colonies die for seemingly no obvious reason — has been inflicting bee populations across both Europe and the US. But scientists from the United Nations (UN) say the phenomenon is now a global crisis, afflicting bees across China, Japan, and Africa, as well as in other places.

Oct. 2, 2012 – China’s Apple Farmers Forced to Do Bees’ Work

Evidence from around the world points to falling and increasingly unpredictable yields of insect-pollinated crops, particularly in the areas with the most intensive farming. Where crops are grown in vast fields, there are not enough insects to go around. If insecticides are sprayed too frequently, then vital pollinators cannot survive.

The most dramatic example comes from the apple and pear orchards of south west China, where wild bees have been eradicated by excessive pesticide use and a lack of natural habitat.

In recent years, farmers have been forced to hand-pollinate their trees, carrying pots of pollen and paintbrushes with which to individually pollinate every flower, and using their children to climb up to the highest blossoms. This is clearly just possible for this high-value crop, but there are not enough humans in the world to pollinate all of our crops by hand.http://chinadigitaltimes.net/2012/10/chinas-apple-farmers-forced-to-do-bees-work/

Oct. 3, 2012- Varroa mite wreaks havoc in Swiss bee colonies

“Swiss beekeepers are hoping for a cold autumn and spring after last year’s mild temperatures turned honeycombs into honeyed tombs – mostly because of the Varroa mite, which feeds on healthy bees. The past few years have been tough for bee colonies almost everywhere. For example, colony collapse disorder was a massive problem in the United States in 2007. But this year has proven disastrous for honeybees and their keepers in Switzerland. A study of a thousand Swiss hives shows that 50 per cent of the bees did not survive the winter of 2011-2012.”

June 14, 2013 – British Honeybees Are Dying Faster Than Ever

UK honeybee deaths were the worst on record, the British Beekeepers Association (BBKA) said in a statement on Thursday. Over the 2012-2013 winter season, 34 honeybee colonies of every 100 were lost on average — more than double that of the previous year. Widespread die-offs are being blamed largely on bad weather and a late spring, BBKA said in their report.

June 21, 2013 -25,000 Bees Found Dead In Oregon Parking Lot, Environmental Organization Says

“Tens of thousands of dead bees and other insects were found in a Target parking lot in Oregon earlier this week in what is being called one of the largest mass deaths of bumblebees in the western U.S., a local environmental organization says. The dead bumblebees, reported to be around 25,000 number, were found by shoppers under blooming European linden trees in Wilsonville, Ore., according to the Xerces Society, a Portland-based nonprofit that studies bees and other invertebrates. Xerces was the first to document Monday’s mass death”

July 1, 2013 – New film sees a world without bees

Documentary fllmmaker Markus Imhoof explores the theories behind colony collapse disorder and its impact while examining bee behavior and reproduction in fascinating extreme closeup in his film “More Than Honey,“ A Q&A with the director of ‘More Than Honey.’

Here is one of the questions from that report.

Q Do you believe Einstein was right when he said “if bees were to disappear, mankind would have four years to live?”

A It’s rumored that he said it, but it’s very clear what the risk is: 70%-80% of all plants are pollinated by insects and could not exist without them. Also, a third of everything we eat would not exist; specifically, the healthier and tastier part of it. For instance, a hamburger could not be made with lettuce, onion, ketchup, cucumber, mustard and meat from cows (who had never eaten any clover) without honeybees. The world would be in black and white

July 23, 2013 – Bees Dying by the Millions

Just weeks ago in Elmwood, Canada, local beekeeper Dave Schuit lost 600 hives, or a total of 37 million bees. Another Canadian farmer lost eight of his 10 hives. The bees started dying in droves just after corn in the area was planted, an alarming red flag since corn seeds are often treated with neonicotinoid pesticides, which are known to kill insects by attacking their nervous systems. Some governments are finally taking action against these toxic chemicals, but clearly not fast enough. How many more millions of bees have to die before protection is granted to these invaluable creatures? For those who aren’t aware, there are about 100 crop species that provide 90 percent of food globally and, of these, 71 are pollinated by bees.

July 24, 2013 – Scientists discover what’s killing the bees and it’s worse than you thought

“As we’ve written before, the mysterious mass die-off of honey bees that pollinate $30 billion worth of crops in the US has so decimated America’s apis mellifera population that one bad winter could leave fields fallow. Now, a new study has pinpointed some of the probable causes of bee deaths and the rather scary results show that averting beemageddon will be much more difficult than previously thought.” http://qz.com/107970/scientists-discover-whats-killing-the-bees-and-its-worse-than-you-thought/#107970/scientists-discover-whats-killing-the-bees-and-its-worse-than-you-thought/

August 9, 2013 – The Trouble with Beekeeping in the Anthropocene

I’ve written this week’s cover story for the magazine, on the growing threat to honeybees. You can read it (with a subscription) over here. The short version: beginning nearly a decade ago, honeybees started dying off at unusually and mysteriously high rates—this past winter, nearly one-third of U.S. honeybee colonies died or disappeared.
