our project focuses on the conservation of local wild bees.

What is your favorite snack?
- 00:11 - 00:13
Did you enjoy a nice cup of hot coffee?
- 00:13 - 00:17
But to start your day, how about a couple of
- 00:17 - 00:19
blueberries? Did you eat about almonds?
- 00:20 - 00:21
Maybe an apple?
- 00:24 - 00:24
Uh huh.
- 00:26 - 00:30
Well, all of those foods go through the same process.
- 00:31 - 00:36
Pollination. Without bees, pollination could not occur, and we would
- 00:36 - 00:38
not have any of the food I just listed.
- 00:38 - 00:41
Furthermore, we would probably not have any food at all.
- 00:45 - 00:48
Bees pollinate 90% of the world's leading global crops.
- 00:49 - 00:54
What that means is that 90% of the world's global
- 00:54 - 00:56
crops is pollinated by bees.
- 01:01 - 01:05
Honey bees pollinate numerous things, and as you can see
- 01:05 - 01:09
on this image, most of the pollination occurs at the
- 01:09 - 01:15
coasts. There are numerous things such as beautiful flowers, apples,
- 01:15 - 01:19
pears, watermelon, really.
- 01:19 - 01:21
Everything is pollinated by bees.
- 01:22 - 01:24
Without them, humans would definitely starve.
- 01:25 - 01:28
We would not be a happy race at all, because
- 01:28 - 01:30
bees are the main reason that we could survive.
- 01:33 - 01:37
Of course, the darker states are where the bees pollinate
- 01:37 - 01:37
the most.
- 01:38 - 01:42
As you can see in California, Texas and Florida, there
- 01:42 - 01:46
are numerous food products and flowers that bees pollinate.
- 01:47 - 01:50
This could be because of the Sonnier climate and more
- 01:51 - 01:51
flowers to pollinate.
- 01:52 - 01:56
But regardless, 90% of the world's leading global crops are
- 01:57 - 01:58
pollinated by bees.
- 01:59 - 02:03
10% of the food we eat is not affected by
- 02:03 - 02:07
bays. That means our food supply would be drastically reduced
- 02:07 - 02:10
without bees pollinating the food that we need to survive.
- 02:12 - 02:15
Furthermore, no one can enjoy the spring at all without
- 02:15 - 02:17
these beautiful flowers that bees pollinate.
