Winner of the PEABODY AWARD, this fascinating program explores one of nature’s most baffling ecological mysteries: why have millions of honeybees recently disappeared? While not as publicized as climate change, the effects of this crisis on human life could be felt sooner and more severely, with billions of dollars of crops at risk and our most healthful and colorful food supply threatened. The usual suspects: habitat loss, pesticides, suppressed immune systems, and viruses, among others, may all work together to create a perfect storm that has overwhelmed the little, but very important and beautifully adapted honeybee. Join researchers as they scramble to discover why honeybees are dying in record numbers- and to stop the epidemic before it spreads further.
