Dan Rather took a closer look at Colony Collapse Disorder. In the report, he speaks of the importance of bees, and how bekeepers around the world are reporting loosing up to 30-60% of hives per year! The EPA, who has approved the use of neoicotinoid pesticides has nothing to do with the testing of the chemicals. They allow the companies that make them such as Bayer to provide their own research. It is a great watch, and I highly recommend it.
