Intro
Imagine this, you wake up in the morning and all the bees are buzzing,the birds are chirping, everything's great!You wake up the next morning and everything's great or so you think. when you open the window there are no bees buzzin, no birds chirping and all the trees have been cut downIf you don't want this to happen I can tell you why it's happening and help you to prevent it from happening. bees going extinct will lead to higher food prices and the loss of animal and flower lives.How sad is that?


P.1
If bees disappeared there would be a massive decrease in our food supply.Not only are bees awesome pollinators they also help the growth of the cocoa bean one of the main ingredients in chocolate. so no bees way less chocolate.They are amazing pollinators they also pollinate 70 out of a 100 crop species that feed 90% of the world thats some good work for those tiny pollinators.Honey bees are responsible for $30billion dollars a year  in crops.So a world without bees would struggle to feed a population of over 7 billion.Our supermarkets would also lose half of the amount of food they have now.So that means much higher prices that some families could struggle to afford and no one wants that to happen.


P.2
My second point is that if bees disappeared Animals and flowers would suffer.If bees vanished we could lose a lot of different flower species that bees pollinate as well as the animals that eat those flowers seeds and so on up the food chain.The USA’s commercial honey bee population has lost 40% percent of the bees. The UK has suffered a 45% loss.If bees went extinct it would have a massive effect on wild flowers and animal life.Approximately 250,00 species of flowering plants depend on bees to help them pollinate.Some of the reasons were losing bees fast is the sad loss of  flower meadows and the horrible varaomite that feasts on their blood,as well as climate change and use of pesticides.Honey bee colonies in the USA have been shown to disappear overnight leaving the queen and mother of the hive to starve to death.

P.3
Heres How you can help.Make sure your honey comes from beekeepers who care about the bees health not just the produce.You can also help by eating organically and not spraying chemicals on your flowers.Try and buy flowers that bloom for as long as possible and remember bees like herbs too, not just flowers!Here are some flowers and herbs that you can plant in your garden that bees will love, like:lavender,sage,tomatoes,rosemary, pumpkins,passion fruit vines and sunflowers.Also remember that bees are attracted to the colors blue,


Conclusion
So now that you know terrible things will happen if bees dissaper I would step up my game.DO YOU REALLY THINK YOUR DOING ENOUGH!!!!!
