I know this probably wont go down too well here, because its actually good news. But here it is!


England's five rarest bumblebees have made a comeback in parts of Kent and Sussex, conservationists have said. The five threatened species have spread their geographic range as a result of environmental schemes in Dungeness and Romney Marsh. Measures to make the habitat more suitable include putting pollen and nectar-rich flower margins in fields. Project leader Dr Nikki Gammans said she had not expected to see successful results so quickly.

See, people CAN make a difference, and it seems nature recovers quickly. There is still time for us to reverse what we have done to the rest of the planet. Every little thing helps. Its just a shame that the people with the actual power and resources to fix the planet up would rather use those resources to rape the earth so they profit more.

This is great news! I am so happy that they are bringing it back... Without them we would probably die of suffocation from lack of oxygen!

Bzzz... Bzzz!

Great news OP.
I wouldn't say we'd die of suffocation (our oxygen mainly comes from plancton and algaes), but if bees were to vanish, I think none can yet predict all that may happen.
