It is the collapse of the whole system, and honey bees collapse is probably one of the first that we have noticed since the buzzing bees are disappearing. Bees are sick and disappear in China, so they use pesticides and antibiotics on the remaining bees, but that makes problem worse. The Chinese provides cheap honey full with illegal antibiotics such as the chloramphenicol, which is a drug banned in the United States, Canada, and other European countries. China uncertainly, not the only culprits in causing colony collapse disorder (CCD), United States and the rest of the world also have parts in contributing to CCD. The conditions beekeepers provide for the bee workers are stressful, Jacobsen describes the description of how the honey bees have to go through when working in different environment each time they are transferred from coast to coast.

    Colony Collapse Disorder

    Bees play an integral part in daily human life. Bees pollinate $14 billion in US crops per year, which includes apples, coffee, and almonds (Danforth, 2007). Unfortunately, they have gone through a rapid decline in population in recent years; managed honey bee population has decreased by one-fourth in Europe between 1985 and 2005, and by more than one-half in North America between 1947 and 2005 (Christen, Fent, & Mittner, 2016). The economic value behind bees is enormous, because of it, scientists were quick to find the culprit: Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD). It consists of a myriad of obstacles facing the bees population; from pesticides, parasites, climate change, to the monoculturalism of crops. With these barriers, scientists are also researching ways to combat CCD in order to save the bees and agriculture.…
