It's a new year, but the trend we are seeing with the collapse of ecosystems and the impact to species continues. Many of you know I did my Master's thesis on the symbolic nature of Colony Collapse Disorder, the mass vanishing of billions of honeybees. The loss impacts me deeply, and the mystery of it even more so.
The question is, if we did know what was causing these mass die-offs in any specific, would we/could we collectively do something about it? Though its not evident what's killing the bees, for example, it could be anything from increased use of pesticides to new technology that interferes with their ability to navigate. How to reconcile human progress with the animal and plant beings...?
