Bees and assorted pollinators



There has been a lot of news about the demise of wild bees and the
decimation of domestic hives. Some say that there is no real problem,
merely a temporary "shortage" and that this is all a political
smokescreen by the beekepers association because Uncle Sugar is cutting
funding everywhere. Others say that "we" are in big trouble and that a
minimum of 200 species of plants, shrubs and trees will be  dying or
extinct within two years. 
I'm strictly an amateur, not even a farmer. Could someone with
credentials cut through the B.S. and tell me what is going on? I
apologize if this is "old news".
