    Hmm – and we may soon be reduced to same – Google “colony collapse disorder”. Thankfully we have things like Mason bees to take up the slack.

    Pesticides may well have been/still be the problem in China, but US has long been far more careful in that one area. We have a different problem – if anyone can define it certainly, so we can get a cure. Lots of theories, no proofs.
