Bees are often seen as a nuisance, but they’re actually crucial to our survival, pollinating about 33% of the food we eat. Sadly, their population has dropped by a third in the past five years. Sir David Attenborough warns that if bees disappear, humans could only survive for four more years.
We can all help by taking small actions: If you find a tired bee, mix two tablespoons of sugar with one tablespoon of water and leave it on a spoon for the bee to drink. Planting flowers or allowing wildflowers to grow in your yard also helps support local bees. Every little bit counts in preserving the planet for future generations.
