Albert Einstein speculated that "If the bee disappeared off the surface of the globe, then man would only have four years of life left."

Herbicides and insecticides as well as disease have taken their toll on bees. They are essential for pollinating crops and play an important role in ecology. IF wheat and corn crops failed, there would be a global famine. Livestock couldn't be fed, synthetic fuels affected etc. This is disturbing

Yes, there has been a terible loss of bees. The east had a much rougher winter than usual. That killed a lot of the hives. The other hives died for reasons nobody seems sure about yet. Imports of cheap honey from Asia has dropped the value of beekeeping to the point that many beekeepers are deciding to opt out of the business. Yes this does look bad for farmers that need the bees to polinate crops.

Don't know.
But, if every egg of every fly would hatch and not die, we would be covered in flys worldwide in no time at all.
We wouldn't be Fried.
We would be Flyed!

My, God, here is another one! A person believing, or worried about what Albert Einstein said, and don't give a hoot, nor holler, about what the Bible says.

It's definitely not a good sign of our environment, is it?? I think there are changes taking place, world wide, with our environment ,,,,that we have yet to understand. This is going on in our environment, whether you believe in God OR NOT.
