Scientists perplexed by failing bee colonies
Entomologists from across the United States gather in Maryland to study Colony Collapse Disorder, a mysterious collapse affecting bees in 25 states. While a German study links mobile phones to the phenomenon, U.S. scientists doubt the theory and discuss other factors such as high fructose corn syrup, management practices, and environmental stress. The issue threatens pollination of crops valued at billions and spreads to Canada and Europe, with beekeepers like Danny Weaver of Navasota pushing for coordinated research and congressional funding.
