RE: Abeilles, l'imposture ecologique, Gil RIVIERE-WEKSTEIN


This was discussed here before, back in March 2008. I posted this rough translation 

(from a review, approximately translated by Google) 

Bees, ecological sham. The case of the cursed insecticides

1995, panic in the apiaries !  Some beekeepers in several regions of France
deplored unusual mortalities of bees.  Soon, some of them pointed to two
insecticides as solely responsible for these massacres. Thus began the
affair Gaucho and Regent, "cursed" insecticides. After numerous experts,
counter-expertise and legal procedures, this small group of beekeepers got
the suspension in 2004 of the two insecticides. Case closed? Not quite.
After two years of investigations, the journalist Gil River Wekstein reveals
the underside of this story, and shows how ecology has served as a pretext ...

It also allows us to understand how these "cursed" insecticides have become
the scapegoats to hide the growing difficulties of beekeeping and to
challenge a model based on modern agricultural technological progress.
