Soon one of your primary fears, death by honeybee sting, will be naught but a memory. In the US, bee populations across the fruit belt (southern states and California) have seen sharp declines, from 50-90%, the cause of which has yet to be determined.
Of course, while you're dancing for your new-found freedom from allergic shock, you'll want to find some way to prevent scurvy, because without those bees, it'll be more than honey and wax that disappears from grocery aisles.
Say good-bye to fruits, vegetables, and everything that eats them, like cattle, pigs, and people.
So cheer up! That massive population die-off that everyone's been expecting, it's coming soon, and we're gonna take most of the planet with us when we check out. Way to go, human race!
(Oh, oh yeah. I noticed they listed four possible causes, not one of which was the introduction of GM plants to the ecosystem. Fuckin' great investigative reporting, guys, fuckin' great.)
