Bee's are disappearing, they just hate you and want to put as much distance between you and them as beeingly possible.

Bees are not dissapearing. There's a hive of them at my school, there's bees all over my back yard, technically, they're everywhere.
Another thing, bees usually hibernate the longest where the difference between winter temperature and spring temperature are the least different. Meaning America or any other places that have warm-ish winters, because it's harder to tell when the snow's gone or the flowers are back.

Quote from 4godsakeGlobal warming is a grievous prospect.
Animals dying, us dying, water levels rising, ice creams melting...
thats horrible (look in bold).
Devour, just because there is alot of bees at your community doesnt mean they are not dissapearing.

If the bees are disappearing, the other pollinators would take over, which would lead to less plants, which would lead to less animals, which would lead to no difference to us, since the amount of animals dying would alter our diet only slightly, if any.
Besides, I couldn't give a shit because humanity is rotten and destined to die.jk

Bees cover about %70 percent of the worlds pollination. how are the other bugs that also pollinate supposed to fill that in? also, less animals and plants would make a difference to us. vegiterians would cry and steak people would go hungary. we would still starve, der.

Why would "steak people" go to Hungary?
I'm guessing that about a 1/3 of the human food supply depends on insect pollination, most of which is done by bees, so I see your point. I'm just guessing our diets would change or something. I dunno. I don't think I should even be in the Debate section.

I have only seen one bee this entire summer. Even if bee's don't appear as much as last year does not mean they will go extinct next year. Global warming may have escalated the decline of bee population. Though what I don't get why bee's would start disappearing now? Global warming has escalated massively into the turn of 21st century so we would see a slight decrease from the start. The bee's would not just be extinct suddenly in a year. And also maybe the demand of honey has increased so more and more bee's are being cultivated to make honey. These are only theories so yeah.
@Nukem Seriously we would not starve. Hundreds of bug species go extinct everyday and never effect us seriously. Yes it would be catastrophic if bees would go extinct AND it would effect us because of their big role in the pollination cycle. Some food-providing plants,flowers etc, would go extinct but there is still tons of plants that don't totally rely on bees to pollinate them. And the animals would also feed on the non-pollinating plants.

Haha. What other plants are you talking about? Around 90% of the plants and flowers are angiosperms. Most of the other plants are not edible.

It's a good thing there are so many people in this thread that can reassure me about this crisis with their obvious mastery of science and back up their claims with undeniable empirical evidence.
HEY GUYS, I SAW A BEE TODAY, THEREFORE THEY ARE NOT DISSAPEARING
YOU ARE INCORRECT GOOD SIR, I DID NOT SEE A BEE TODAY, THEREFORE THEY ARE
