The U.S. Just Lost a Record Number of Honey Bees — What That Means for Our Food and Future

Record Bee Deaths Sound the Alarm — Here's How You Can Help

Last year, over 60% of U.S. honeybee colonies died—the highest loss ever recorded. This isn’t just a crisis for bees; it’s a warning for us all.


Why Bees Matter

Bees pollinate one-third of our food—apples, almonds, coffee, and more. When bee populations decline, we face:


  • Reduced crop yields

  • Rising food prices

  • Weakened biodiversity

  • Unstable ecosystems


What’s Killing the Bees?

The main culprits are:


  • Climate change – disrupts blooming cycles

  • Habitat loss – fewer native plants and wild spaces

  • Industrial farming – pesticides and monocultures harm pollinators
