“You remember what air was, right honey?”
Air? Like from the recirculator?
I think the most disturbing part about this comic is that they put another human being into this world.
got to hope it gets better!
Maybe, though, she was small when the world went to shit
Or just a happy little accident. It happens
It’s hard to say, sampling error, or what, but it sure seems I have less bees of all types in the garden this year. I’m concerned.
One of the biggest impacts you can have on saving bee biodiversity is to, ironically, not buy honey. Far and away the biggest source of store-bought honey in the US is European honeybees (Apis mellifera), an invasive species introduced to North America in the 1600s. They outcompete native bee species and destroy biodiversity so the honey industry can turn a profit.
I don’t remember if it was a video or an article, but the title went like, “It’s not just you, bees are disappearing.”
I don’t think you’re seeing things, unfortunately.
Insect populations are declining.
As a motorbike rider in the UK I get much less “bug splat” on my visor now than I did 25 years ago.
I’ve been stepping up my efforts to make the garden more bee friendly, and it’s still declining.
I’ve maybe seen 20 bumbles this year, it’s very sad :(Same here.
Well, I can’t speak for everyone, but maybe all of the wasps decided to come to my house instead… they’re in my damn roof, the bricks, the garage… but hey at least they’re pollinators?
Interestingly, I haven’t really been paying much attention this year, but last year I saw more flying insects than I have in an age. It gave me a quantum of solace.
How do they eat without bees?
Manual pollination, qtips are good for this.
Yes, but it’s a big pain in the ass when the flowers are 20m up and only open at night.
As they say: plenty of algae on the sea (and nothing else).
And probably roaches.
