With the large die-off of honey bee colonies in the past decade, the future is looking bleak for their survival. Honey bees are vital to the growth and production of many of the foods we consume. If we do not come up with solutions to protect them, and help the colonies thrive once again, we may find our future diets cconsisting of more artificial foods, which could mean more health concerns for a growing population. We must remember all creatures have their place in a thriving ecosystem.
