Why Native Bees Are Dying Out – and How We Can Help

Everyone talks about honeybees, but what about North America’s 4,000 native bee species?
Most are stingless, solitary, and don’t produce honey – but they’re essential for wild plant ecosystems and crop pollination.

Yet only a fraction have been assessed for extinction risk.
This World Technology short highlights the work of grassroots scientists and citizen scientists mapping, protecting, and even rediscovering native bee species.

From Sam Droege’s rediscovery of Andrena pruni to Tracy Cirillo’s research in Connecticut orchards – their efforts are saving pollinators we can’t afford to lose.
