Not Cell phones, not parasites (this time), not Genetically Modified crops, and not modern pesticides. You are technical, that is why you are on Slashdot. Ask yourself, How do bees navigate, how do they see? Keep those questions in the front of your mind, and read on... The beekeepers are not reporting dead bees, they are reporting missing bees.
I first hear about this on NPR Science Friday report about missing honey bees. http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?story Id=7806292 Although it is 26 minutes long, you need to listen to it.... nothing about sunspots, but about MISSING bees.
As a follow up, just google "bees crops", you will find this is happening in all over planet earth. The sun spot cycle is just starting, it won't peak until 2010 - 2011. Google nasa sites. The sun flips its poles every 11 years (yea, I didn't know that either)
The worst is yet to come, the sun spots just started and won't peak until 2010 - 2011.
