Thanks Kaslin. I should have known. I was giving this some thought along the way and suspected as much. Good to know.
If the decision is between helping this nation or hurting it, you can depend on the White House to choose hurting.
Very informative. Good find. Thanks!
“The issue is never the issue. The issue is the revolution.”
—David Horowitz, quoting unnamed SDS leader.
The decline in native bees (and it's real) is mostly due to non-native plants. Native bees don't make honey. They require pollen all spring and summer long. They're more picky about what plants they visit, in part because others produce toxins they can't tolerate. It's complicated. My work in this vein has focused on what it takes to establish and maintain the native plants they need (7MB pdf).
So that’s the buzz on the Pollinator Task Force?
Facts? Progressives don’t need no steenking facts!
I’ve said this here on FR many times, and I said it again when this faux bee story got legs;

They are repopulating the west with wolves and there are herds which will never recover. There is a caribou herd in British Columbia that is doomed.
They are suing the feds for wanting to allow some hunting of grizzlies at Yellowstone. The elk and moose cannot survive the current surplus of both grizzlies and the newly introduced grey wolf. All because they want to stop hunting.
They believe the myth that nature will balance itself and man are the worst species on earth. They lied about so many things that were later found to be incorrect by science.
