Buzzkill, presented by REAP/SOW
by FERN
Consider the American bumblebee, once the most common bee species in the United States. Its numbers have declined by 90 percent in the last two decades. We’re talking about more than just the loss of an iconic species. Three-fourths of the food crops humans grow depend on pollinators – bees, butterflies, hummingbirds, and more. Industrial monocultures sap the soil. Rampant chemical use poisons our water and our bodies. Reckless stewardship of the land wastes our precious resources. Buzzkill asks why we raise food this way – and how we can change things for the better.
