Download Fruitless Fall: The Collapse of the Honey Bee and the Coming Agricultural Crisis AudioBook Free
Many people will remember that Rachel Carson expected a silent spring and coil, but she also warned of a fruitless fall, a period without pollination and no super fruit. The fruitless semester nearly became possible when, in 2007, beekeepers watched 30 billion bees mysteriously pass away. And they continue steadily to disappear. The remaining pollinators, essential to the cultivation of a third of American vegetation, are actually trucked across the country and flown about the world, driving them ever nearer to collapse. Fruitless Show up does indeed more than just highlight this growing agricultural catastrophe. It stresses the miracle of flowering plant life and their pollination lovers, and urges visitors never to take the plethora of our Globe for granted. A fresh afterword by the author tracks the newest advancements in this ongoing turmoil.
