Let's acknowledge the crucial role of bees in our ecosystem
The stingless bees from the Zurich Forest Project in Brazil's Atlantic Forest are essential for maintaining biodiversity. These unique bees, including Melipona quadrifasciata and Plebeia Schwarz species, face environmental challenges, but their survival is crucial. Unfortunately, bees are under serious threat globally, with over 500 million bees dying in Brazil alone due to harmful pesticides and insecticides. This decline impacts not only plant diversity but also food availability and habitat for other wildlife.
