It’s a serious issue, and we should all take it seriously.
Bees may be small, but they do a huge job. Almost 33% of the food we eat depends on bees for pollination.
In the last 5 years, the bee population has dropped by a third. But don’t lose hope! There’s something we can all do.
David Attenborough has a simple tip for us. Mix some sugar and water in a spoon and leave it in your backyard. It could actually help save lives – not just the bees’, but ours too!
This time of year, you might see bees that look like they’re dying or already dead. But that’s not the case. Bees can get really tired.
Sometimes, they just don’t have enough energy to fly back to their hive. That’s when they might get in trouble.
If you find a tired bee in your house, here’s what you can do. Mix two tablespoons of regular white sugar with one tablespoon of water.
Put it on a spoon so the bee can reach it. It’ll give the bee the energy it needs. And you can also help by sharing this post to let more people know about this.

Here’s another great way to help both bees and us. Plant some flowers on your balcony. Or, if you have a backyard, let some wildflowers grow in a corner. The bees in your neighborhood will really appreciate it!
