Bees 
(First 37 mins of 52:34)
This year marks the highest losses of honey bee
populations in the U.S. Some of the country's biggest
beekeepers have lost over 60%. Some say they won't be able
to rebuild their numbers with such high losses and if these
kinds of losses continue, the industry may only be able to
sustain itself a few more years at most. WIth one in three
bites of food we eat dependent on bees for pollination, will
there be enough bees to pollinate the crops this year? The
almond orchards in California are the first test where 85%
of the world's almonds come from. Enter a fascinating world
of the largest mass pollination event on earth.
