Kill more bees! They can be a nuisance–when not pollinating our plants so we can have fruit, vegetables, nuts, and flowers. Do we really need all that produce and beauty anyway?
That seems to be the attitude of Syngenta Crop Protection LLC. They’ve asked the EPA to relax their rules about legal limits of a pesticide reside that is a proven cause of the marked decline in the bee population over the last 30 years. They want to increase the limit 4000 times (yes, four thousand), ensuring an even quicker decline in bees and, therefore, crops pollinated by them.
