RE: Honey Bee Increased Mortality Linked to Common Crop Chemical

in #science9 years ago

I consider this to be pseudo-scientific propaganda, funded by Monsanto. It is not some natural chemical killing the bees, but their pesticides. Worse than that, any bees that have shown resistance to roundup and have managed to survive, have been seized by authorities and the queens have been killed.

Why this is happening, I do not know. But in viewing Monsanto's other actions, it is clear that their agenda is complete and absolute control over the world's food supply.

Just theorizing now, but perhaps it is something to do with dispersion. I know that bees are responsible for a lot of pollen distribution, so they are a vital component in the natural reproductive cycle of plants, including vegetables and crops of other types.

With no bees, perhaps it would become impossible for the random civilian or the family farmer to grow their own organic food. The only way to reproduce your crops would be through unnatural means, something that Monsanto are happy to do, and have done with their GMO's.

If only they possess the necessary tools to create more crops, then they will have a complete monopoly on the world's food supply and more power than one could imagine.

It's been a while since I studied this type of thing, so I'm not certain of anything I just said in regards to crops and bees, that was just a quick theory my mind presented to me.

I am however adamant that it is Monsanto behind the reduction of the bee population, and I know that this is exactly the sort of news on a scientific study that corporations fabricate to take attention away from their crimes.

Paid study is my verdict.

I have still given you an upvote because I like posts that get my brain burning calories.

Sort:  

Even the supposedly benign chemicals have an accumulative effect in bees. They might be fine with one exposure, and last a while. But they begin losing their sense of direction and ability to communicative functions. Their resilience to disease is being harmed as well, both by the chemicals and the death of mycelium in the soil itself. Paul Stemens has shown that bees that consume mycelium (which grows naturally in healthy soil) are resistant to the mites that carry diseases as well as the diseases themselves. Of course, mycelium cannot grow where herbicides are used, adding to the bees' destruction. It's a myopic spiral. Fortunately some countries are recognizing Monsanto, Du Pont and others for what they are and kicking them out of their countries.

I agree, pesticides, and Monsanto, Du Pont and many others do great harm to us while we turn a blind eye because they supply us with cheap food. Chaos will teach us eventually as we get sicker and lose the bees and butterflies that help us survive. Thanks for the feedback.

I hope that you mean Du Pont, otherwise I may need to do some research right now, as I haven't the slightest inclination as to what dew point is.

No need for thanks, I am a fan of a great deal of what you share on here, so my upvote(insignificant as it is) is merely my way of thanking you.

Keep the content coming, and perhaps one day not too long from now I will have a vote that weighs enough to effect your payout. lol.

Yeah typo dyslexia I dunno both, Dew Point => Du Pont. LOL.

I googled Dew Point and it is a scientific term to do with water in the atmosphere. Given the type of things you post, I would wager that you frequent sites that publish scientific studies and other information-based resources, so you have probably come across this term before.

Because Du Pont sounds likes Dew Point, while typing quickly, your mind probably mixed the two up. This is something I do very often and so, you shall receive no judgement from me for the error.
