We Need Bees
In recent years, scientists have
noticed a large decrease in the bee
population. Although many people
think bees are bad, they are actually
very important for plant life. They help pollinate
flowers and plants. Without them, many plants would no
longer grow. Some plants that need bees to survive include
apple trees, broccoli, and squash. Of course, bees also give us
honey. Bees impact the entire food chain, so it would be
terrible if they went extinct.
