Bees in danger
The product is only available in French language
Having appeared on Earth over 100 million years ago, bees are now threatened with extinction! In the space of 10 years, the population of flying insects has fallen by over 40% in Europe... How can we save these discreet agents of biodiversity, who pollinate almost all our wild flowers and cultivated plants?
Abundantly illustrated, this book introduces us to the complex world of honey bees and their lesser-known cousins, the wild bees. Did you know that a honey bee starts out as a cleaner in the hive? Or that the horned osmia can make its nest in a snail shell?
Environmental pollution, the disappearance of their natural habitat, the massive use of pesticides or the presence of invasive species... The author takes stock of the perils that threaten bees, but also proposes concrete solutions to take action and better protect them, in town and country.
The solutions exist, let's save the bees!
