Scientists Discover Fungicide and Pesticide are Killing Bees―and It's Worse Than You Thought
August 13, 2013 | 6,568 views---Dr.Mercola.com.
n the US, beekeepers have reported annual losses of about 33 percent of their hives each year, a level of loss that the Agricultural Research Services reports
…Systemic neonicotinoid pesticides have been increasingly blamed for bee deaths (and were implicated in a recent mass bee die-off of 25,000 bumblebees大黃蜂 along with millions of bee deaths in Canada), prompting the European Union (EU) to ban them for two years…..
when the pollen花粉 was fed to healthy bees, they had a significant decline in the ability to resist infection with the Nosema ceranae parasite, which has been implicated in Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD). (Nosema ceranae是fungi, 存在花粉中,所以使用neonicotinoid—速必效,台灣普遍用的一種殺蟲劑,;會影響蜂的神經傳導而致死!),
Following the June incident that killed 25,000 bumblebees, the Oregon Department of Agriculture (ODA) announced that they were restricting the use of 18 pesticide products containing dinotefuran, a type of neonicotinoid. 美國奧立岡在今年發生黃蜂死亡,所以造成US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)訴訟案件件極增,所以成立法案--- HR 2692……--- require the EPA to pull neonicotinoid pesticides from the market until their safety is proven. Please contact your representative today to voice your support for this incredibly important issue.所以民意壓力甚大,(超過Big Pharm.Co.想像)……This year, many of the 6,000 almond orchard owners in California simply could not find enough bees to pollinate their almond trees, at any price. This is alarming, considering that 80 percent of the world’s almonds come from California’s central valley, an 800,000-acre area of almond orchards that are 100 percent dependent on bees pollinating the trees. Surprisingly, almonds are the number one agricultural product in California….---杏仁樹要靠蜂授粉,尤其加州供應世界80%的需求
……What Are Some of the Top Theories for Bee Die-Offs?
蜂類死亡是多重因素,但最重要的是殺蟲劑濫用,;
Pesticides, insecticides and fungicides – Neonicotinoids, such as Imidacloprid and Clothianidin, kills insects by attacking their nervous systems
Malnutrition/Nutritional deficiencies – Many beekeepers place the hives near fields of identical crops, which may result in malnutrition as the bees are only getting one type of necta
• Viruses and fungi – There's even the possibility that some new form of "AIDS-like" viral infection is affecting the bees.
• Electromagnetic fields (EMFs) – Researchers have discovered that when a cellular phone is placed near a hive, the radiation generated by it (900-1,800 MHz) is enough to prevent bees from returning to them, according to a study conducted at Landau University several years ago.電磁波是從2008年來重要議題,Big Industry 政府會抗拒嗎?!加拿大的大黃蜂死亡, 是發生在去年十二月,推論是蜂遭Neonicotinoids,汙染,影響了神經傳導,;而造成失去方向感,所以冬天無法南返,而陰冷凍死亡!!!......正好與台灣農委會推測,:是高溫死亡?!• Lack of natural foraging 草料 糧秣areas – Mass conversions of grasslands to corn and soy in the Midwest has dramatically reduced bees’ natural foraging areas.
• 4 Genetically modified (GM) crops – In 2007, a German study demonstrated that horizontal gene transfer appears to take place between the GM crop and the bees that feed on it.基因重組食物因種子要泡殺蟲劑, 殺草劑等,是最大禍首,今年美國有超過兩百萬農民抗議Bill—37(?Monsato’s Proctect Act)…….
…..美國還是經濟最重要,歐巴馬也不例外!!!....Statin議題就是好例子!!!

台灣政府有甚麼政策?!....一個美牛進口案(2008)就表現出是美國龜兒子!!!......近年塑化物(環保署的事),食品添加劑(......???)--毒澱粉(玉米澱粉製成!!!) 基因改造食物(大豆 , 玉米, 全穀類--燕麥等,)........
我們台灣還放任美國McDonald, Kentacky,玉米片(Gragill?),Coca Cola, Pepsi's coke,甚至Starbuks(? 咖啡因標示不實, 含Fructose(或Table sugar), 杯蓋--No.5(而拒絕改用No.6--耐熱)
政府不借事件正確教育國人,卻只會打擊基層攤販,農民!!!只會打擊台灣經濟,卻不管基層的生活(油電雙漲就是好例子,)...

A first-of-its-kind pilot study reveals that more than half of garden plants attractive to bees sold at Home Depot and Lowe’s have been pre-treated with pesticides that could in fact be lethal to the bees
50,000 bumblebees were recently found dead in a parking lot in Portland, Oregon. The pesticide dinotefuran, a so-called neonicotinoid, was found to have been applied to nearby trees .....
Last winter, beekeepers across the US reported losing anywhere from 40 percent to 90 percent of their hives, and many of the 6,000 almond orchard owners in California could not find enough bees to pollinate their almond trees this year .......
There are about 100 crop species that provide 90 percent of food globally and, of these, 71 are pollinated by bees. In the US alone, a full one-third of the food supply depends on pollination from bees......

Bees have been dying off around the world for a decade now from a phenomenon called Colony Collapse Disorder, or CCD. A third of the U.S. food supply depends on the honeybees
This year, the US experienced the highest losses of honeybee populations so far, with most of the nation’s beekeepers losing anywhere from 50 to 90 percent of their bee population
Many of the 6,000 almond orchard owners in California could not find enough bees to pollinate their almond trees, at any price, this year
The collapse of bee colonies is probably multifactorial, but a major factor is the toxicity of systemic pesticides called nicotinoids, which kills insects by attacking their nervous systems
In May, beekeepers and environmental groups filed a lawsuit against the agency over its failure to protect bees from toxic pesticides
