- "Buzzzzz"
- "Buzzzz"
- "I don't feel well."
- In walks hipster bee "Do you want to get buzzed?"
- "Getting buzzed is all about bringing the bees back to urban areas and what you can do to help."
- "The bee has been getting a bad rap. But did you know that the bee is some serious trouble."
- "Honeybees are the unsung heroes of the food chain, crucial to the production of one-third of all the foods that we eat. So when billions of bees starting dying off there is serious issue for concern."
- NO!
- "What's killing the honeybees? Pesticides including a new class called neonicotinoids seem to be harming bees even at what should be safe levels. Biological threats like the Varroa mite are killing off colonies directly and spreading deadly diseases."
- Be Aggressive
- "As our farms become monocultures of commodity crops like wheat and corn, plants that provide little pollen for foraging bees,honeybees are literally starving to death."
- If we don't do something, there may not be enough honeybees to meet the pollination demands for valuable crops. But more than that, in a world where up to 100,000 species go extinct each year, the vanishing honeybee could be a major catalyst of a permanently diminished planet.
- "What can you do to help? Short of becoming an urban beekeeper, which can be costly and can take a lot of maintance. Here are some simple things to get started."
- Would you mind passing this around?
- "Get informed. Just watching this alone is a start in the right direction. You have to know that there is a problem before you can be part of the solution."
- "Don't spray it. How would you like eating poision everyday? Not only that, taking poison back to your family and poising them as well. That is what is happening with the chemical pesticides you may be using in your garden. Find eco-friendly alternatives to these products."
- "Give the bees a voice. Contact your local government and ask them to support more funding for research and natural bee habitats. Ask them to stop the use of pesticides in public spaces."
- "Buy locally and organic. Organic farms practice and promote healthy ecosystems and avoid toxic and persistent pesticides. Buy local organic fruits, vegetables and honey to help support beekeepers in your area."
- "Plant bee friendly flowers. Whether it's a window box in your apartment, a garden in your backyard or a green space in your community, there's something you can grow to help bees. The more diversity the better."
- "Spread the buzz. Nothing is more powerful than word of mouth. Tell your neighbors and friends what they can do to help the bees and why we should all be friends."
- BUZZ
- "Now you can say your buzzed."
- I'm Buzzed!
