This is NUTS. The Trump Administration is closing our premier research lab for honeybees and it will make it harder to respond to the growing number of honeybee deaths.
The U.S. Dept. of Agriculture has run for many decades the The Beltsville Agricultural Research Center. This is where beekeepers turn to when there is a significant bee deaths. The lastest was a massive die out due to pesticide resistant mites.
You do understand that honeybees are some of the most important species on the planet. Bees literally make our ecosystem work.
The bees literally make it possible to grow food.
You must not let this happen. Please stop this administion from shutting down this research center. It is for all of our lives and our children.
