    I think this mean if bees gets disappeared,then there would be no pollination, and so when many crops in the world depends on pollination and if bees are out,there are no crops and and no humans

    Maybe that is the reason .

    Agree with that argument. Bees do play a major role in pollination and thereby improving the agriculture productivity. Man depends on the agriculture for his food and without bees, you can imagine the situation...

    I'm a part time bee keeper and I can tell you honeybees are disappearing at an alarming rate.

    Saw this news on BBC yesterday...

    Why are Europe's bees dying?
