Title: [VIDEO] TED TALK: Marla Spivak: Why bees are disapearing
Post by: happyconcacti on December 15, 2014, 08:09:06 PM
I found this TED TALK particularly intriguing. Marla Spivak (http://www.entomology.umn.edu/People/GradFaculty/Spivak/) is a honey bee specialist and has researched their immune systems greatly. In this video, she discusses the current problems and potential solutions. Essentially, we need to have a "hive-mind" to fix the bee problem.
