Save the World Food Supply - Save the Bees!

I've just finished the book "A Spring Without Bees" by Michael Schacker about Colony Collapse Disorder. I recommend it to anyone who has concerns about CCD, global food supply, organic food, etc...

“A Spring Without Bees, How colony collapse disorder has endangered our food supply” is the next “Silent Spring”. Michael Schacker’s book is the first to thoroughly investigate colony collapse disorder and related bee die-offs and determine the major suspected cause of colony collapse disorder (CCD). Yet unlike many books about environmental crisis, this one gives us hope with clear answers and solutions.
