Absolutely true, farmers are killing off honey bees with the help of Monsanto. Insecticide sprays and GMO grains are weakening the honey bees and causing colony collapse in many parts of the USA.
It really irritates me the armchair ecologists / snowflakes / millenials are all up in arms about fracking and global warming yet they have no clue how bad modern farming is poisoning us and the environment. If they would do a little studying and research in to things like how the Mississippi Delta is a huge dead zone caused primarily by farm run off, how much fertilizer made from petroleum is put on the ground and goes into our water along with herbicides and pesticides, how much petroleum is used to raise crops for ethanol and bio diesel, how much water is wasted to irrigate land that should never have been farmed, how much petroleum is used to make the tile that drains wetlands and kills our wildlife then drains the toxins into our lakes and streams......the idiots might start boycotting farm products, ethanol and do protests around big farms and their conferences.
People are getting dumber all the time and allow farmers who are poisoning the world air commercials on TV about how they feed the world. The majority of their crops go to making ethanol and biodiesel, most of the rest goes to livestock feed. The same livestock that are shot up with hormones and antibiotics that gets into our water that create super bugs like e-coli and strep that cannot be treated, make us unable to combat the bugs with the existing antibiotics and the hormones in our water are causing boys to grow breasts and girls start menstruating at an earlier age.
