honeybees<00:00:59.199> and<00:00:59.399> that<00:00:59.559> goes<00:01:00.120> deep<00:01:00.800> back<00:01:01.440> for
honeybees and that goes deep back for
honeybees and that goes deep back for
thousands<00:01:02.440> of<00:01:02.640> years<00:01:02.960> we're<00:01:03.199> very<00:01:03.480> co-evolved
thousands of years we're very co-evolved
thousands of years we're very co-evolved
because<00:01:04.439> we<00:01:04.640> depend<00:01:04.960> on<00:01:05.199> bees<00:01:05.960> for
because we depend on bees for
because we depend on bees for
pollination<00:01:07.520> and<00:01:07.759> even<00:01:08.080> more<00:01:08.360> recently<00:01:09.000> as<00:01:09.119> an

not<00:01:13.799> just<00:01:14.080> dying<00:01:14.840> but<00:01:15.000> they're<00:01:15.320> gone<00:01:16.080> we<00:01:16.159> don't
not just dying but they're gone we don't
not just dying but they're gone we don't
even<00:01:16.520> find<00:01:16.840> dead<00:01:17.119> bodies<00:01:18.040> this<00:01:18.159> is<00:01:18.320> called
even find dead bodies this is called
even find dead bodies this is called
colony<00:01:19.000> collapse<00:01:19.439> disorder<00:01:20.040> and<00:01:20.159> it's

still<00:01:22.880> do<00:01:23.119> not<00:01:23.400> know<00:01:23.720> what's<00:01:24.119> causing<00:01:24.520> it<00:01:25.119> but
still do not know what's causing it but
still do not know what's causing it but
what<00:01:25.400> we<00:01:25.560> do<00:01:25.759> know<00:01:26.040> is<00:01:26.200> that<00:01:26.360> with<00:01:26.479> the
what we do know is that with the
what we do know is that with the
declining<00:01:27.320> numbers<00:01:27.640> of<00:01:27.840> bees<00:01:28.759> the<00:01:29.000> cost<00:01:29.400> of
declining numbers of bees the cost of
declining numbers of bees the cost of
over<00:01:30.000> 130<00:01:30.759> Fruit<00:01:31.040> and<00:01:31.240> Vegetable<00:01:31.759> crops<00:01:32.439> that
over 130 Fruit and Vegetable crops that
over 130 Fruit and Vegetable crops that
we<00:01:32.799> rely<00:01:33.159> on<00:01:33.680> for<00:01:33.960> food<00:01:34.759> is<00:01:34.960> going<00:01:35.320> up<00:01:35.560> in<00:01:35.960> price
we rely on for food is going up in price
we rely on for food is going up in price
so<00:01:37.159> honeybees<00:01:37.720> are<00:01:38.000> important<00:01:38.479> for<00:01:38.680> their

terrific thing let me give you a brief
rundown<00:02:35.440> on<00:02:35.560> how<00:02:35.760> pollination<00:02:36.280> works<00:02:36.599> so<00:02:36.720> we
rundown on how pollination works so we
rundown on how pollination works so we
know<00:02:37.040> flowers<00:02:37.599> we<00:02:37.720> know<00:02:38.040> fruits<00:02:38.360> and
know flowers we know fruits and
know flowers we know fruits and
vegetables<00:02:39.280> even<00:02:39.519> some<00:02:39.760> alphalpha<00:02:40.239> and<00:02:40.519> hay

that the livestock for the meats that we
that the livestock for the meats that we
eat<00:02:43.840> rely<00:02:44.200> on<00:02:44.440> pollinators<00:02:45.400> but<00:02:45.519> you've<00:02:45.680> got
eat rely on pollinators but you've got
eat rely on pollinators but you've got
male<00:02:46.120> and<00:02:46.280> female<00:02:46.680> parts<00:02:47.000> to<00:02:47.400> a<00:02:47.560> plant<00:02:47.959> here
male and female parts to a plant here
male and female parts to a plant here
and<00:02:48.440> basically<00:02:49.120> pollinators<00:02:49.640> are<00:02:49.800> attracted
and basically pollinators are attracted
and basically pollinators are attracted
to<00:02:50.680> plants<00:02:51.200> for<00:02:51.480> their<00:02:51.840> nectar<00:02:52.840> and<00:02:53.159> in<00:02:53.319> the
to plants for their nectar and in the
to plants for their nectar and in the
process<00:02:54.200> a<00:02:54.360> bee<00:02:54.599> will<00:02:54.840> visit<00:02:55.159> some<00:02:55.319> flowers

aren't<00:07:47.000> around<00:07:47.440> anymore<00:07:48.400> so<00:07:48.560> we<00:07:48.759> need<00:07:49.120> bees
aren't around anymore so we need bees
aren't around anymore so we need bees
and<00:07:49.599> they're<00:07:49.800> disappearing<00:07:50.280> and<00:07:50.400> it's<00:07:50.520> a<00:07:50.680> big

honeybees<00:08:02.960> started<00:08:03.319> disappearing<00:08:04.319> so
honeybees started disappearing so
honeybees started disappearing so
