Bee stings are not the only thing that hurts with the humble bumble bee. Our beloved honey bees are endangered with the unfortunate issue surrounding colony collapse disorder (CCD). Unfortunately the bee is dying in enormous numbers. 30% of bees have died or disappeared in some regions in the past year.

This campaign’s mission is to educate people about the plight of Bees. This includes Australian native bees and introduced. The collapse of many bee colonies can be lead back to the use of deadly pesticides. It is crucial that we stand together to help protect our precious pollinators against harm.

You may be thinking “this has nothing to do with me, who cares?” But it has EVERYTHING to do with you.

Bee’s pollinate approximately 65% of all food crops, as well as pastures that sustain the meat and dairy industries. It’s estimated that $14 billion worth of food is grown each year in the US and 2-4 million in Australia.

Without bees, there would be no apples, pears or strawberries. No morning coffees and no sneaky chocolate breaks.

Did you know, that Einstein once said “No more honeybees, no more pollination, no more plants, no more animals, no more man. If the honeybee disappears off the surface of the globe, then man would have only four years of life left”

Australias Save The Bee organisation “Bee the cure.com.au� and Rebees are partnering up to help educated people on CCD and raise money to help save the bees.

To create and market specialty items to help generate awareness of the endangered bees.

All specialty products will have 100% of procededs donated to bee the cure on behalf of rebees “help the hive.�

Thee money donated will help go towards research into CCD and will also go towards educating people on the effects of CCD.
