The Save Our Bees Campaign
Plant Bee friendly plants!
If the bee disappeared off the surface of the globe then man would only have four years of life left. No more bees, no more pollination, no more plants, no more animals, no more man.
As part of the celebrations of National Science and Engineering Week 2009, we asked the UK public to help save our UK bees by planting bee friendly plants across the country! This will help them to be healthier, helping them survive infection, changing weather patterns and more.
Billions of the UK's bees are dying from unknown causes. One in three honey bee colonies in the UK were lost last winter alone. The UK's bumblebees are also suffering because there aren't enough wild flowers for them.
All bees need our support. Bees are vitally important for everyone. In all, they are responsible for pollinating one-third of all the foods we eat!
You can still help our bees even though National Science and Engineering Week is now over this year. Register your interest on this website and receive a free information and activity pack.
The next national celebration of science and engineering will be on the 12-21 March 2010! Click here for more information.
