Pollinators are critically important to our food supply. According to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, honey bees are responsible for pollinating about 10 billion dollars’ worth of crops every year in the U.S. Besides bees, there are more than one hundred thousand animal species that help pollinate some 250,000 flowering plants on Earth and they’re increasingly under threat. What can we do to help support the vital work they do?
