There are too many honeybees

> Still, the save-the-bees narrative persists. Its longevity stems from confusion about what kind of bees actually need to be rescued. There are more than 20,000 species of wild bees in the world, and many people don’t realize they exist. That’s because they don’t produce honey and live all but invisibly, in ground nests and cavities like hollow tree trunks. But they are indispensable pollinators of plants, flowers and crops. Researchers have found that many species of wild bees are, in fact, declining.

We were just discussing this at dinner just how awful the news is to watch. They blow everything out of proportion and always have a strong bias in one way or another. It is no longer informative but simply every news outlet has turned into the sensational rags that used to only be in the form of grocery store check outs pushing the latest Bigfoot conspiracy.

Modern news is terrible. I suggest everyone to stop watching it. You will be happier.

Commercial honeybees are not endangered. But honey bees are just one type of bee. And the major issues that kill 1/3 of honeybee colonies every year also affects other bee species. It's just that only honeybees are propped up by commercial agriculture.

Instead you became vaguely aware of an actual issue and just like that from reading a headline you are ready to conclude it's all a conspiracy and revise your entire world view.

Did you not consider at some point reading even one of the articles.

I'm not chiding you specifically for not having read this particular article I'm certain we have all been equally guilty of that I'm wondering instead about revision of your entire understanding on a topic you had never bothered to understand at all.

It is a critical problem. The endangered wild bees (critical for many ecosystems) are not the same honeybees that are farmed for profit
