Hundreds of Millions of Bees Are Dying

Bees are, for lack of a better term, dropping like flies this year and it has the potential to change our food supply. I’m Tomi Lahren with what you need to know, next. In an unexplained and underreported phenomenon, bees in the United States are dropping dead with hundreds of millions dying in the last 8 months. Scientists have not been able to pinpoint just what it is that’s causing these mass bee deaths. Some believe It could be weather patterns or changing habitats. It might not seem like a big deal if you’re not a beekeeper, but if you like honey, almonds, fruits, and vegetables, this should concern you! Yeah, not only do bees make our honey, they pollinate 75% of the fruits, vegetables and nuts in the U.S. which amounts to a staggering $15 billion worth of crops. If this trend of bee deaths continues for multiple years, our food supply is in big trouble. Professional beekeepers are also being hit hard financially, some unable to sustain their beekeeping businesses. So this isn’t just a bee issue, this is a national food security crisis in the making!
