Bees are amazing - not only do they fulfil a vital role in our ecosystem, they are one of the most complex and sophisticated living things in the history of evolution. One bee alone may not amount to much, but collectively they become a powerful and vital force, responsible for pollinating almost 75% of the world’s food crops. Without bees our world would be a very different place. Through updates from current affairs programmes to thermal camera footage of bees in action, this collection describes the recent dramatic decline in bee populations, suggests what we can all do to help and showcases one of the planet’s most fascinating creatures.
