Vanishing of the Bees
Rating U
Directors: George Langworthy & Maryam Henein
US 2009 1hr 37mins
'If the bee disappeared off the surface of the globe, then man would only have four years of life left'. So said Albert Einstein. In Einstein's time, though, those words were idle speculation - today they sound like a dire prophecy. Over the past few years honeybees have begun to vanish. For the most part, we don't even find their bodies. As those working in the industry approach panic, this documentary asks what's going on.
Introduction and Q & A
Alison Knox (NBKA) will tell us how she became a prizewinning beekeeper and what we can all do to help this worrying situation.
