Honey bees are doing pretty good but it is the wild bees that need us to advocate for them. Native bees also known as wild bees are facing increasing risks of extinction. With more than 20,000 species worldwide, there is a study that shows that nearly 1 in 4 are imperiled. Pesticides, parasites, and loss of habitats are causing decimation to the wild bees colonies. Can you take 1 (one) minute and send a message to your member of Congress to support restrictions on neonicotinoid pesticide (a known wild bee killer) and bills that strengthen the wild bee population? https://actionnetwork.org/letters/happy-national-honey-bee-day #PeoplePowerUnited #NationalHoneyBeeDay #SavetheBees https://actionnetwork.org/letters/happy-national-honey-bee-day
