we can’t lose the buzz
Mother nature and her impact is heavy on everyone’s mind recently of course with the devastating earthquake and tsunami in the Pacific. Events such as these remind us how subject we are to our environment and humble us with what we take for granted. Another force in nature upon which we depend greatly with are honey bees and the endless work they perform in ensuring the pollination of our food. The silence of the buzzing throughout the world raised eyebrows months ago but since has faded away from the news spotlight. In my most recent Slow Food USA newsletter, I learned of a new documentary dedicated to this mystery of the bees. It’s called Vanishing of the Bees. Check out the trailer and learn more about what it could mean if we can’t figure out where the bees are going. The consequences aren’t very sweet.
