SYNOPSIS: In this article the main topic is about the reason why there’s a huge decline in bees and who’s responsible for it. Recently beekeeper John Van Blyderveen noticed an increasingly amount of bees this year and is questioning himself on why. He also quotes “This is very sad” since bees are very important to us because they pollinate our fruits and vegetables and without them we most likely will die. Overall in this article there’s different point of views from beekeepers/scientists on why there’s an increasingly amount of bees. Most beekeepers thinks mites and pesticides are the problem on why Bees are declining while scientist seem to believe it’s the Fugitive Dust and mounting.
REFLECTIVE QUESTION: If pesticides is the issue, should the Canadian Government make a stricter policy to help prevent the decline in bees?
