The process is ongoing in europe for something like ten years, though. At first, the pesticide "Gaucho" was responsible. Industry made a minor change in the formula, renamed it "Regent", and, mind you, nothing changed except the fact that true scientists must now prove that Regent is responsible, a process that will take some years again, and so on...
Aye!

I am getting quite worried about all of this. Climate change, water pollution, air quality - these happen slowly. They can suffocate ecosystems, but these are slow processes that can be often be halted at some point. Usually at the point where the slash-and-burn tactics of the perpetrators have ceased to be profitable, and the warnings of the experts have turned into uncontestable reality.

By contrast, the 'dissapearing bees' is in environmental terms almost an overnight event.
