Bees are disappearing at an alarming rate across America and the world. Buzzing hives have turned up empty overnight. What’s happening to the bees?

What is it?

Scientists call this phenomenon colony collapse disorder or CCD.

What causes it?

That’s the mystery behind it all. Scientists hypothesize it’s several factors. (pollution, pesticides, malnutrition, etc..)

The next time you go to the grocery store, think about all the products bees help make. Nearly all of our fruits and vegetables require bee pollination to grow. Even the widely popular Hasgen-Dazs ice cream would be affected. (Bees make up 40% of their super-premium flavors)
