Thiruvananthapuram: Sweet nothings murmured into a mobile phone spell doom for honeybees, says a study. The booming communication industry is not helping one sector - apiculture - at least. Honey and bee wax are not the only things at stake, though. One-third of our crops need bees to pollinate.
"There is a 60% plunge in Kerala's commercial bee population. Bees are susceptible to diseases and attacks by ants, wasps and wax moths, but vigilant keepers can check these," Sainudeen Pattazhy, reader in zoology, SN College, Punalur, said.

I don't think that Urban hives will be very successful with all the Urban phone masts. Could be a greater number of dead bees next year.
Taking the EMF issue seriously with bees could be critical. But they are all burying their heads in the sand.

The link below is to a very interesting short video about bees dying. It shows several smart people who understand that bees are dying and have various views about the causes. Unfortunately they are not quite smart enough to realise that electro magnetic radiation is harming the bees and is a major contributor to CCD.
