A NATION OF GARDENERS AND BEEKEEPERS

by Carolina Lopez

Bees have an integral role across all aspects of the ecosystem and are the most significant pollinator of food crops worldwide. They are vital to a sustainability story for our planet however many species are being pushed towards extinction due to pesticides, disease, climate change and habitat loss with human influence on these factors playing a majority part.
With this project I hope to highlight the significance of these important pollinators to the environment and our food supply as well as suggest initiatives to educate and activate a local and national agenda around promoting bee colony sustainability centred in Bergen, Norway.
