New movie launched in America in August.
I heven't seen it yet, but having watched the trailer, I urge everyone to go and see it, or to host a "Vanishing of the Bees" house party, and get the story out to as many as possible.
There are many theories about Colony Collapse disorder. Until we find out for sure what is causing it, there are some things we can do:
Lobby governments the world over for better studies on pesticides (also, grow your own food or buy organic), their effect on honey bees and humans, and their persistence in the environment. Prefferably studies NOT run by the companies producing the poisons.
Plant more flowering plants. Roses are lovely, but modern roses actually offer very little to honey bees. Find plants for your location that produce plenty of nectar and grow them without insecticides (or other pesticides).
Now... I just need to find the money so I can screen the movie here.
