Studies have been pointing to neonicotinoid pesticides having a link to bee deaths and the colony collapse disorder over the last few years. Two Ontario honey-producers, with support from the Ontario Beekeeper's Association, just launched a $450 million dollar lawsuit against Bayer Inc and Syngenta International Ag for a lack of due diligence in ensuring that these pesticides were tested properly for safe use.

Now a new study has been published in the Journal For Experimental Biology claiming that glyphosate is also linked to bees starving and being unable to find their way back to their hives, contributing to colony collapse disorder as well. That story is at this link:

There are already full or partial bans in some countries on neonicotinoids and glyphosate as more research comes out linking both to health issues in insects and animals.
