Ban on pesticides urged to save Britain's bees
  • 11 years ago
A UK parliamentary panel has told the government to stop using pesticides. The Commons Environmental Audit Committee says that the bee population in the UK is rapidly falling as a result of the dangerous chemicals. Up to two-thirds of honey bees have suffered population declines. The dramatic fall in the bee population could have far-reaching consequences. Al Jazeera's Simon McGregor-Wood reports from London.
