In the past decade, the US honeybee population has been decreasing at an alarming and unprecedented rate. While this is obviously bad news for honeypots everywhere, bees also help feed us in a bigger way -- by
pollinating our nation's crops. Emma Bryce investigates potential causes
for this widespread colony collapse disorder.
Honeybees play a critical role in food production. They are a key pollinator and colony collapse disorder may soon have a significant impact on not only the cost of food but what is available. This TED-Ed video looks at this issue. As always you will find a "Think" section with questions students may answer as well as an in-depth look at additional resources.
