Hi jerry,
Statements like the "4 years without pollinators and we will be gone", are a
good catchy intro
to start a program to get attention quick. I know, or I think I know, total
loss of pollinators will
not end mankind. China has proven Pears can still be grown, with great
quality, but quantity??
However, how can anyone prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that if we lose all
pollinators,
man will not be gone in, say, 10 years?? Several items we really like will
not be as plentiful.
2013 was a very bad year in North Alabama for several beekeepers.
Queen breeders in North AL had the worst year they ever remembered.
I had my worst year for bee losses in my 39 plus years. This year has been a
total turnaround for me.
