Ffs. Just one thread without the ANC and EFF and politics, please.
Are there any legal requirements to keeping bees?
No, it's not a made up crisis. Listen to Paul Stamets and many others. There are many people who are actively reproducing bees because we depend on them for so many things,Which bees are declared an endangered species list? There are 1000s of bee species, the honey bee isn't going extinct nor is it an endangered species, even they have different subspecies.
This pops often where a bunch of Muppets are sitting going I'm bored let's make up a crisis. Oh bees are important but they are going extinct.
The Bee Apocalypse Was Never Real; Here's Why
The narrative that honeybees – which aren't actually native to North America, Europe or Australia – face mortal danger and will take us down with them has, for years, been advanced by environmental groups and repeated in the media. The only problem is that it isn’t true. According to the USDA...www.acsh.org

A long-running question is: Are honey bees endangered? There are practices people in and out of the agricultural industry can do to help.
You're Worrying About the Wrong Bees
Honey bees will be fine. It's the other 3,999 species of bees in North America we need to worry about.www.wired.com
If you're just referring to pollination of plants, there are many others we should also worry about, remember honey bees aren't native to quite a few countries, we introduced them, there are other pollinators that were there before honeybees.
They actually don't spray as much as you think, spraying large amounts of crops cost a lot of money and it will only be done if really needed. They also try to GM plants to be resistant to certain pests and allow others to be fine, but everyone gets up in arms about GM.
Not really sure what your point is here. There's a supposed crisis because we do depend a lot on bees to pollinate the food supplies of the world. Whether those bees are native or not or whether there's other pollinators seems kind of irrelevant to the discussion of bees & their importance.
Yes but the bees we currently rely on aren't a problem.

A friend of mine has two flow hives, very cool

There are other pollinators that are a problem and other species of bees that are endangered but not honey bees. The common thing people think of when people say bees. Every year someone pipes up we are having a problem with bees and it's going to cause a worldwide crisis.
It's like people are trying to find issues where currently there aren't, there was some cases of colony collapse but it's rectified itself.
These are called insect hotels. They are a safe place for woodboring bees and other flying insects to reproduce and build nests.
Yup, as you don't want the wood borer insects to make their homes in your house. Had a few wood borer bees make their home in my brandings.
