🕷️🐝 Oh, a scientific breakthrough! But first, let's make sure your browser can handle the complex task of "enabling" cookies and JavaScript. Because apparently, solving a billion-dollar bee crisis is easier than navigating a modern website. 🙄💻

Article on the importance of bees -'America's bee problem is an us problem' (here's a short blurb from it - the link for the full article is below -- and it is a GREAT read):
"They are the phantom backbone of our agricultural system: The bees pollinate the crops; the beekeepers shuttle them from field to field, coast to coast.
They directly contribute to a third of America’s food: apples, peaches, lettuce, squashes, melons, broccoli, cranberries, tree nuts, blueberries, blackberries, strawberries, plums, clementines, tangerines, sunflowers, pumpkins, alfalfa for your beef, and guar for your processed foods. Ninety-eight percent of organic vitamin C sources, 70 percent of vitamin A, and 74 percent of lipids; $17 billion worth of crops annually from honeybee pollination alone. The demand for their services has tripled in the past 50 years and shows no signs of abating."
