Hardworking insects are dying in Russia and around the world, as the Bulgarian soothsayer predicted.
Can't you hear w-w-w-w? It's not good
The bees are dying. They are dying en masse. Reports of this come from all over the world. Russia is no exception. According to the information reports, the plague has engulfed hardworking insects in dozens of regions of our country. Their corpses, according to eyewitnesses, are strewn with Bashkiria, Mari El, Tatarstan, Udmurtia, Ulyanovsk, Kursk, Tula, Bryansk Voronezh, Lipetsk, Moscow, Nizhny Novgorod, Ryazan, Rostov, Saratov, Smolensk regions, Mordovia, Krasnodar, Altai, Stavropol.
A trouble that seemed so far away - somewhere in America, Asia, Europe - invaded us too.
The current biological cataclysm, if you can call it that, did not begin yesterday. And not suddenly. It has been going on for at least 13 years. Scientists realized that something was wrong with the bees in 2006. Then the first scientific works began to appear with alarming statistical data, which testified to a noticeable - almost twofold - reduction in the number of bee colonies in the world over 50 years. On each hectare, an average of 10 percent of the previously available bees remained to work. Now the situation has only worsened. It worsened so much that scientists started talking about an environmental disaster, and mystical citizens remembered Baba Wang and Albert Einstein.
The number of dead bee colonies is estimated at hundreds of thousands.
In one of the long-standing prophecies attributed to the Bulgarian soothsayer, Vanga predicted the beginning of the mass death of bees in 2004. Which is not much at odds with real events. Even if she was wrong, then only for 2 years. Although who knows, maybe Wanga "saw" before what scientists have not yet noticed.

The further - already scientific - prognosis is frightening: if bees continue to disappear at the current rate, then by 2035 they will not be at all. And then we can expect that the prophecy of Albert Einstein, who predicted back in the 40s of the last century, will come true: 4 years after all the bees die out, there will be no human civilization. It's not about honey - there will be no one to pollinate plants, including those that provide fruits to people and animals. Fearfully…
So, 2039 is the date of the next apocalypse. Some 20 years left. If you don't save the bees. For flies that are most likely to remain, what hope?
The diagnosis is not clear
The exact causes of the bee pestilence are not known. Only one thing is clear: it develops against the background of a declining environment and a decrease in the number of melliferous plants. But most likely, studies show, bees are dying from chemicals used in agriculture. From some they die directly, being poisoned. From others - a little later as a result of a weakened immune system and subsequent infection with diseases and parasites, for example, deadly ticks.
And the newest - neonicotinoid - drugs that penetrate the nervous system of insect pests affect the bees in such a way that they disrupt their navigation system. Worker bees "go crazy" and do not return to the hives, leaving a queen with larvae there. Dooming them to death by starvation.
Herbicides, pesticides, insecticides - all these agricultural chemicals that are sprayed, scattered and sprayed on the fields of our planet are harmful to bees. It may not kill directly, but it can fatally affect the health and behavior of industrious pollen and nectar collectors.
What to do? It is clear that: thoroughly understand the causes of the pestilence, of which there may be several. Find funds and specialists capable of competently conducting research and analysis. And as they say, "to pile on" before it's too late, as in their time they piled on the epidemics of plague, cholera, typhoid fever. What if old Einstein and Baba Wanga were right?
We can live without honey, but not without bees.
Concerned beekeepers have already turned to President Putin for help. They sent him to the "Direct Line", which took place on June 20, 2019, with a request to "take measures" against the mass death of bees in Russia. The implication is that "measures" will somehow restrict the use of agricultural chemicals - especially pesticides containing neonicotinoids.
AT THIS TIME
Cellular communications are also under suspicion
Some researchers attribute electromagnetic radiation to the probable reasons for the disappearance of bees. Its source is cellular communications that have spread throughout the world.
Experimenters from the University of Punjab (India) insist on the fault of mobile phones and the networks serving them. For three months they followed the bee colonies from two hives. The bees in the first hive were exposed to electromagnetic radiation from two mobile phones, which were turned on twice a day for fifteen minutes. The bees in the second hive were not "irradiated". As a result, it turned out that in the first hive the queen bee laid twice as few eggs as her “sister” in the second - not irradiated hive. The number of bees, accordingly, has become noticeably smaller. The amount of honey has also decreased. Moreover, some worker bees from the first hive stopped returning home after a hard day's work. Like those poisoned by pesticides.
It is symbolic that the name of one of the popular cellular communication networks refers to bees, in the destruction of which this network, perhaps, also participates, like all others.
