Bees have been dying off around the world for more than a decade now, a phenomenon that has been named "Colony Collapse Disorder," or CCD.The U.S. and the U.K. both reported losing a third of their honeybees in 2010. Italy lost half.The die-offs have spread to China and India, in addition to many other countries. A third of the U.S. food supply requires the assistance of the honeybee. The collapse of bee colonies is probably multifactorial, rather than a response to one type of toxic assault.
