Recently, there have been growing concerns about the extinction of entire bee colonies globally. The causes of this problem are numerous: from geoengineering, to harmful electromagnetic radiation, and the use of pesticides and air pollution. It is necessary to raise awareness of how important bees are for pollination, honey production but also for maintaining a sophisticated balance in nature. Here are 10 fascinating facts about honey and bees that you may not have known and that further remind you how important it is to protect bees from further extinction and to support organic honey production. Only organic honey production respects and appreciates sophisticated bee protocols, does not disturb their delicate natural balance and does not use poisonous and harmful preparations in beekeeping. 1.
