[2012 Jan] USDA Ignores Pesticide Ravaging Bee Population, Threatening Global Environment
[vid 2011 Aug] Why the birds and bees are dying. The EPA knows, but aren't telling Banned everywhere, but legal in the US. Does it get more corrupt than this? A corporation is allowed to rip the heart of America's agricultural system (honeybees are ESSENTIAL for pollination) and not one of the scumbags in Congress or the empty suits in the White House are doing a thing about it. We don't have a government in this country. We have a gang of self-serving thieves. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
[2010 Feb. Letter] Chemtrails and Bee Decline Three days later, there were no wasps or bees to be seen anywhere in the area. It took several more days before we saw a wasp or a bee again. Their numbers did recover, but only to a small fraction of what they had been before the chemtrails. The only conclusion we can reach is that the chemtrails contained some kind of insecticide and was deliberately intended to kill off the wasp and bee populations.
