What’s killing all the honey bees? No one knows for sure. But a lot of different people are pointing at more than one culprit. Colony Collapse Disorder is the newly-minted term for bees abandoning their hives when they go out to pollinate fruit and vegetable crops . Even the Secretary of Agriculture is worried that the missing bees could cost at least $15 billion.

    Great post! I’m glad to see we have some audio discussion going on about our potential bee epidemic (not everyone likes to read :P )

    I’ve heard rumors that organic bee farmers are not experiencing any unusual bee die offs this year. It makes sense that looking into pesticides and GM crops are among the first things we look into. Kudos to Mr Sheppard for heading up some research!

    I’ve been trying to raise money for bee research by selling tshirts. I hope if you have a minute, you’ll check it out!

    Thanks!
