...Dr. Albert Einstein once said that if the honey bee vanishes from this planet that within 4 years there would be no more humans...
...perhaps the 4 years may not be accurate...but the importance is that we depend on this species for our survival...and when such an incredible mind says something to this caliber it's hard to simply ignore it and do nothing.
…especially of late with all the news regarding bees...colonies simply disappearing (google CCD - colony colapse disorder)...over the past 50 years the global human population has been on the rise...and i think it's safe to say that it's been on the decline for bee colonies...not a good sign if you ask me...
...so I've been keeping bees for 4 years and realized that it takes time...years...to expand an apairy...where i started with 2 and at the moment am tending to 29...and my plans are to keep expanding...
...from my experiences in bee keeping and learning bee culture i've realized that bees exhibit their own Design Science...their architecture, the way they function, and the way they utilize the resources around them for survival...they are truly amazing.......cheers, thomas
