Bees are dying in their billions.

In the UK, around one fifth of honeybee hives were lost in the winter of 2008/09. Bees pollinate a third of the food we eat, and this contributes £200million a year to the UK economy.

Vanishing of the Bees is an eye-opening account of the shocking truth behind the declining bee population.
