Bee numbers on parts of the east coast and in Texas have fallen by more than 70 percent, while California has seen colonies drop by 30 to 60 percent.
According to estimates from the US Department of Agriculture, bees are vanishing across a total of 22 states, and for the time being no one really knows why.
Pour ceux qui comprennent pas bien l'anglais, ça veut dire que même les abeilles ne sont plus capables de rester aux états-unis... Mais sérieusement ça me parait vraiment inquiétant. Quand les abeilles disparaissent c'est qu'il y a un sacré problème...
