Cover up by the cell phone companies.  Millions of bees are found dead at the bases of cell-phone towers.  But these corporations claim they are innocent?

&#xD;&#xA; I&#x27;ve never noticed this. I&#x27;ve done a lot of work @ cell tower sites &amp; haven&#x27;t seen it. Some sites have microwave antennas &amp; they have been known to drop some birds in their day, but I can&#x27;t say I&#x27;ve noticed any bees on the ground.&#xD;&#xA; I have noticed a decline in honeybees...........when we were kids they were everywhere that flowers popped up............now I see more yellowjackets than anything else.

Did Einstein really say that though?  I&#x27;ve heard that it is believed that he said that, but that it&#x27;s not documented anywhere.  I could be wrong though... don&#x27;t know for sure.

AllSteelRoots · Answer

I am not sure if E said that, but if the bees did all die so would our food supply.

HAARP system may be the cause..... It has been blamed for fish kills and bird deaths. Its no secret all the things that can be done with this type of energy. And the US is not the only country to have this tech.

But the bee thing is real....its a huge issue and is discussed around the agriculture communities. And I am part of that community.

Monsanto round-up ready corn and soybeans have a toxin genetically produced by the plant and will also only produce infertile seeds so they cannot be carried over by the farmer.

In France and Germany bees are not dying in wine regions because farmers have made it impossible to plant GMO that are believed to be cause of collapse

We own an Ag/Farm Radio Network and we recieve a great deal of advertising from Monsanto. Our president ,my father, had an invite to spend a week at Monsanto headquarters in Europe in 2002 because of some advertising promos we had done. Monsanto Headquarters is like a regal hotel complex and he was wined/dined. He was assured at every meal that NO GMO were being served, Monsanto won't eat'em but they'll sell'em.

I&#x27;ts huge decline. When I bought this house in 1994 in N.J. I clearly remember telling my kids to watch where they walked in bare feet as Bees were all over the clover in the yard. For the past 3-5 years they where non existent with the exception of 2012. In 2012 i did see a few now and then.

discussed around the Agriculture communities---but why is it not making Yahoo front page---or the local newspapers?This is a world-wide tragedyHow can people put their minds together to solve a problem they don&#x27;t know about?this is from an article in Feb 2012 https://money.cnn.com/2012/02/07/news/economy/honey_bees/index.htmThe costs have indeed gone up. A typical 50-acre almond orchard might &#xD;&#xA;need 50 to 100 hives to pollinate the trees. With the price per hive &#xD;&#xA;going from $75 to $150 over the last few years, that translates to an &#xD;&#xA;extra $3,750 to $7,500 for a small almond grower. Pollination can now &#xD;&#xA;account for 30% of an almond grower&#x27;s annual costs.

It has shown up on Yahoo&#39;s front page and local newspapers.  It&#39;s been talked about in very popular and high traffic media outlets.

bandit1010 · Answer

Hmmm.  Let me see...too many people in the world, too much pollution, too much of our natural resources being used up too quickly, and we wonder by there are issues, such as the dwindling bee population.  Amazing that we never look at the source of the problem.  TOO MANY PEOPLE.  I cannot believe someone, anyone has not stated this yet.  Seriously, what is wrong with ALL of us.....

Monsanto. Their product and business plan is insidious in nature to begin with.&#xD;&#xA;They are the devil incarnate.

Man has little to do with it. &#xD;&#xA;80% of the bees in California are Africanized. Mother nature, lil help from invasive species, human transport and the rest does the work.
