What’s Buzzin’ About Bees? Well A lot, actually. Often underestimated and seen as nuisance, Bees are really the MVP of life here on planet earth. They offer us way more than just honey and in-fact are quite necessary. Take a look at a few reasons on why Bees are simply amazing!
They’re Buzz-Tastic!
- Pollination! It’s a Sensation!– Probably the most well known benefit bees have is their pollination services, helping to provide food in the form of fruits, berries, nuts, leaves, roots and seeds. Also, Most of our food is directly produced by the pollination of these little guys.
- Whole Worlds Food Chain relies on them. And It’s not just we who benefit, its all species that rely on the food via the Bees.
- Bees help the economy. According to the American Beekeeping Federation, honey bees contribute $15bn to US crop production alone. In addition, the beekeeping industry provides an income for beekeepers and their families through sales of goods and services.
- Biodiversity is HUGE. Bees don’t discriminate and will meticulously pollinate each and every flower they find. This ensures that the pollen is spread to different species and helps them adapt. Thus helping with the Biodiversity!
- Bees are trainable! Bees are being trained to sniff out landmines and explosives! Also, in Africa, bees are being used as a boundary to protect villagers and farms from Elephants. Elephants have been known to destroy farms and trample villages. But they will steer clear of tree’s with a bee nest. This knowledge is not used by many villages as a natural way to protect both elephant and human.
- They Help us understand environmental health. Bee’s are sensitive to changes in their local environment and thus are used as a gauge to understand the health of the area.
