populations are diminishing. This is not because humans are cruel and careless, they simply are just uneducated. They do not know the detrimental effects there would be if bees became extinct. To most, bees are just annoying pests that buzz around and occasionally sting you. Humans do not appreciate the pollinating and honey producing that enable the world to go round.
In order to inform people of the decreasing bee population, people need to actually see the effects of no bees. If nothing is physically happening to them and their world goes on the same, no one will ever do anything about the bees. Natural instincts are to worry about yourself even if it may be hurting others. Therefore, if they are shown that the extinction of bees will effect them and their families, they will be more willing to help. This is not the ideal way of getting people to realize the issues at hand, however, it will be the most effective.
Although people will be informed of the decreasing bee population, there could be no time left. By the time humans realize that change is needed, it could be too late. Without bees, most pollination will be lost. We rely on bees to pollinate our flowers, especially the ones that smell good. No bees, means that most of these flower species will go extinct as well. After the flowers die, a chain reaction has started of endangered plant and animal species. Plus, honey production will stop too. In all, people need to realize the horrible fact that bee populations are decreasing and we must do something to change its course, before it is actually too late.

We Need Bees
There is no doubt that bees are taken for granted. Most people could not care less if bee
