Bees pollinate about 1/3 of the flowers and plants that we use on a daily basis. Without their help, we would see the destruction of these species along with the destruction of the animals that may eat these plants.

It is estimated that atleast 400 million euros are contributed to the European economy. If we lose the bees, we will see massive damages done to the world economy.

"Over the past few years, we have seen a sudden decline in the bee population. Ten years ago, beekeepers in the United States raised the alarm that thousands of their hives were mysteriously empty of bees. To make things worse, we are also losing many of our populations of wild bees. Losing bees can have tragic consequences, for us as well as them. Ten years after the initial alarm, what is the current status of the world's bee populations, and how far have we come towards understanding what has happened?" -ABC.net

The bees are an important part of the world ecosystem. As a result, it is important that we take care of them and make sure that they thrive becaue if they can't, they will all die and hurt the world both economically and environmentally.

In the last five years 30% of the bee population has disappeared, and one-third of the bee colonies have perished. There is no exact estimate of when all of the bees are expected to go extinct, but with the current rate of bees 'disappearing' it could be within our lifetime.

The bees are perishing at an alarming rate due to habitat loss, use of pesticides, diseases, and climate change, according to the United States Fish and Wildlife Service.
