  4. That bee killing shit that Bayer is making is the cause. When they banned
    it in the EU the bees started coming back. We MUST ban that chemical
    immediately!

  7. This is a problem not only in US anymore but equally evident in other parts
    of the world. Honey bees are crucial for agriculture an play a much bigger
    role rather than the perceived honey advantage.

  15. I suspect that GMO crops might have something to do with the disappearance
    of the bees.

  17. 60 minutes did a report on this in 2006 or 2007. They reported that Europe
    had a similar problem but that banning one specific chemical coincided with
    a massive decrease of colony collapse disorder.

  18. Colony Collapse Disorder is being caused by systemic pesticides. There is
    no mystery here. The French figures this out over a decade ago, 60 Minutes
    broadcast this information in the USA over seven years ago, and independent
    scientists (read: not industrial stooges) have verified that this type of
    insecticide is, to the surprise of absolutely no one, dangerous to insects
    (bees).
    So the bigger question is “why is TED pushing this kind of phony
    controversy?” Are you planning on denying global warming next, or is Exxon
    not willing to match the price Bayer paid for this video?

  20. Where have all the honeybees gone?

    Sometimes they sting, but honeybees really are very useful little
    creatures. And they are disappearing… But where are they?

    This TED video is a great educational video on the importance of honeybees
    (not just for creating honey), for kids and adults alike.

  23. You wanna save bees? Stop using pesticides, grow everything organically and
    naturally, slit the throats of everyone at Monsanto, any ag-chem company,
    and GMO seed companies.
