Silence of the Bees
Since April 22 was Earth Day, National Geographic had a great line up of programs that tackle the environmental issues on our planet. One of the programs is Silence of the Bees.
This program really taught me a lot. It has also helped me realize that honeybees are very important to the ecosystem. They are the reason why some plants grow fruit. Without them, the flowers will just wither and die and will not blossom into fruits/vegetables that we eat.
To learn more, please watch this program:

"Scientists say we may be facing a global catastrophe. In the last six months up to 80% of honeybees in the US have disappeared. Now the nightmare has spread to Europe. Are bees the "canary in the coal mine"," the first signs of a massive ecological collapse? Eye-popping, macroscopic photography will get up close and personal on the crucial role bees play in our ecosystem."
