Bees are becoming extinct because of parasite, habitat loss, and cell phones. There are farms that raise commercial honey bees, and ship them to other farms. People can help to reverse the extinction by planting flowers that bees are attracted to, and by not using pesticides in their gardens. Another way to help reverse this is to support local beekeepers by purchasing their honey.

A lot of the stories about bee extinction start off with a mild statement like "The bees will all die and we'll have no food!" While Alfred Einstein is often quoted about the impact of bee disappearance on human life - it should be pointed out that he is a genius when it comes to math and physics, but his qualifications as an apiarist (bee keeper) or biologist are somewhat less clear.

First off bees are not the only crop pollinators our there. Numerous other insects and birds pollinate crops. Before the introduction of the European Honeybee into North America in the 1600's these other critters ha to carry the burden.

Some native bee species are in decline (such as bumblebees) are in decline potentially due to climate change. The problems affecting honeybees such as colony collapse disorder are of importance to commercial bee growers and may be due to the high concentrations of honey bees in an area due to commercial operations.

It is unlikely that bees will become extinct. The European honeybee (one species out of many) may face problems as a viable farmed animal. These are some 20,000 species of bees in the world (maybe more) and the disappearance of one may require the introduction of another.

Many factors include but are not limited to: temperature change (global warming), airborne chemicals (pollution), parasites that infiltrate colonies, and radio waves e.g. cell towers that may interrupt the natural ways in which bees navigate. These are only possible factors, the real fear is that nobody actually knows why they are dying out so fast.

Answer

If all the bees die out we will have no flowers, fruit, vegetables and other plants.

Answer

If all the bees die out the pollinating of the plants and other foods will die out too.

Honeybees are not going extinct. Honeybees are affected by many factors, such as, mites, hive beetles, wax moths, starvation, viruses, climate, parasites and predators. A new problem, CCD or Colony Collapse Disorder, arose several years ago with the disappearance of a large number of domestic hives and it is being attributed to several factors including stress, pesticides, and a parasitic fly.

No, if they were extinct, then we wouldn't be getting honey in our grocery stores. There are many honeybee farms around the nation and still some wild honeybees as well.
