evidence 1
negative effects of pesticides
in the last 50 years, there has been a decrease of honeybee colonies. where are the bees? normally, bees have a built-in memory system so they can leave the hive, collect pollen and nectar, and then return safely to their hive. but, as they consume pesticides from the flowers, their brains are negatively affected, and they "forget" the location of the hive making it impossible for them to return. this has been decreasing the number of bee colonies.
excerpt from “natural farming journal”
evidence 2
negative effects of pesticides
pesticide exposure in bees may cause infections in honey bee colonies. scientists detected 35 different pesticides in the pollen. they found more infections in bees that consumed pollen with these pesticides. these infections are a cause of honeybee deaths.
excerpt from “journal of biological research” plos one
evidence 3
negative effects of pesticides
the way humanity manages honey bees will define our future in the 21st century. the fact is that 70 percent of our crops are pollinated by bees. if the bees disappear because we are using pesticides, these crops will disappear because they will lose their major pollinator - the bee.
