It's World Bee Day today.
Bees and other pollinators, such as butterflies are increasingly under threat from human activities.
Pollination is a fundamental process for the survival of our ecosystems. Nearly 90% of the world’s wild flowering plant species depend, on animal pollination, along with more than 75% of the world’s food crops and 35% of global agricultural land.
Not only do pollinators contribute directly to food security, but they are key to conserving biodiversity.
Here are some ideas for you to be engaged in saving the species:
1.
Plant a diverse set of bee friendly native plants that flower all year
2.
Buy sustainably grown products
3.
Support local beekeepers
4.
Avoid pesticides in the garden
5.
Start your own hive
