Neonicotinoids are a class of insecticides considered to be a major factor in overall bee population declines and poor health. They are also the most commonly used insecticides in the world. Up to 95 percent of the applied seed coating ends up in the surrounding air, soil, and water rather than in the crop for which it was intended, leading to extensive contamination.
Jesus Christ... These chemical companies are out of control. Covering the food we eat in poison from seed to harvest...
Thanks for sharing, even if only a link.. This type of news is so important!
major factor in overall bee population
Don't forget about this little canary in the coal mine:
Very high amounts of aluminum contamination has been found in bees, raising the question of whether aluminum-induced cognitive dysfunction is playing a role in the decline of bumblebee populations. [ref1] [ref2]
In my view, this is all coming about due to a sleeping population. Wake UP!!! You have to talk about it even if it is not popular..
Industry in many sectors has devolved into a model of providing something cheap or expensive, making it abundant whatever the cost and then forcing everyone to pay for it. Fucking brilliant.
