We Should Save The Bee!

Thank you for taking your time to look at our blog, we hope that you will learn something by the end! The aim of our blog is to raise awareness of the problem that means bees are disappearing all over the world, the Pressure Group ‘Plan Bee’ are trying to do something about this. People think because there are so many millions of bees in the world already, this isn’t an issue they need to worry about. Unfortunately, it is.

Bees contribute hundreds of thousands of pounds to the economy each year, not only honey and bee’s wax but designs for items and accessories. They are vital in the life cycle of plants and animals because they pollinate plants, and give animals and humans food. This means if the bee goes so does 70% of the food that we eat.

There are many reasons why the sudden disappearance of these are human related for example: pollution, landfill sites, plants being ripped or trodden on. All of these are things that we can control. The Cooperative has set up a program called ‘Plan Bee’ and there are many charities that are concerned about the matter. As you can see the issue is very important to us as we care very much about the environment and we are doing our best to help. Small things like planting ‘bee-friendly’ plants in your garden can make a big difference, donating small amounts of time or money, fundraising- all of these things could help make sure that the decline of bees doesn’t keep lowering until numbers reach a critical point.


We have already received a response from representatives of The Cooperative and we need your support, please help us in any way possible we need your help to make our topic successful. If you have any ideas please leave a comment. Below are two links one to the Plan Bee website and the other to a PowerPoint presentation.

You may wonder what you can do, or how this could affect you, but all we ask you to do is help us by leaving a comment, buying organic honey, anything you do will help.
