Bees numbers are declining.
Bee colonies have decreased by 25% every year since 2011.
Bees perform more than 80% of all pollination, with three quarters of all fruit and vegetables depending on pollination for survival.
Protecting bees is essential.
Monoculture has a negative impact on Biodiversity
Intensive use of pesticides
The Varroa Destructor parasite
They simply fly from flower to flower to collect
Pollen: source of protein
Nectar: their primary source of energy
70% of our agriculture
depends on pollination
Pesticides are no longer used for the maintenance of public gardens in big cities.
In addition, due to tree and flower diversity,
cities provide important and varied sources of nectar and pollen.
