Bees have been an ongoing problem but the fact that they are dying off and beekeepers are struggling to keep them alive. Honey Bees bring in about 15 billion dollars due to their pollination. Scientists have came up with an oral vaccine to give to the queen bee and it would trickle down the line. It is a disease that spreads through colonies and kills them.






What would we lose if honey bees went extinct?


Why is it just becoming a problem now?


Besides this vaccine what else could we do?

    Honey bees are an important part of our environment because they help to pollinate our flowers, not only would we lose an important role they serve but we would also lose money.

    Honey bees bring in $15 billion dollars do to the pollination they provide. Also if all the bees die it will effect another thing in the food chain. This is why it is important to save the bees.
