Should People be Allowed to Use Pesticides That Have Been Proven to Kill Bees?
Bees are slowly becoming endangered because of habitat loss, lots of pesticides in crops, climate change, and parasites. The earth depends on bees.
Something called Colony Collapse Disorder plays a part in the decreasing population of bees.
Bees are one of the ones that pollinate most plants for us and they make honey.
It is said that bees pollinate one third of everything we eat.
Without bees, we wouldn't be able to eat foods (that require pollination) that are healthy for us.
They pollinate about 70 types of crop and every bee makes about 6,000 tonnes of honey (a colony makes an average of 14 kg of honey).
They also create beautiful gardens for us to enjoy and a habitat for other organisms to live in.
Without bees, eventually life on earth will be gone too.
Freshwater will start drying up because if the trees are gone, water retention will occur less. The human population eventually would die because everyone would be starving and extremely thirsty.
Earth will become one huge desert if bees disappeared because most plants would not be able to grow. The grasslands will become barren and life on earth will be gone.
If a type of plant species disappears, the organism that depends on that type of plant species will also disappear. Slowly, the herbivores will disappear and then the carnivores will.
Thesis Statement
Bees actually are extremely important to our environment. Pesticides that have been proven to kill bees should not be used because they are important to our ecosystem. They pollinate flowers and food for us, we wouldn't survive without them, and we are going to make a species extinct if we do not do something about their decreasing population.
General Info
Bees provide natural honey, which is healthy and can benefit humans.
Bees are winged insects, they eat nectar from flowers, and they have branched body hairs that are yellow and black.
Bees help with transferring pollen to other flowers and food which is called cross-pollination.
Hook
Have you ever wanted to get rid of bees because of their reputation of stinging people?
