Movie Night: Vanishing of The Bees

There are many social and environmental documentaries available for anyone to sit down and watch without having to be a specialist or have an extensive background in the subject matter. The producing team has the challenge of packing a lot of important information into the typical movie length which usually never exceeds two hours. Given the time length it is impossible to get a full understanding of the subject matter, but introductory documentaries on environmental issues provide a great way to get 101 knowledge on a subject matter you're interested in.

 In the spirit of Rachel Carson's Silent Spring, Vanishing of The Honey Bees sounds a warning call on the long term effect pesticides have on colonies of honey bees in the United States and other insect and mammalian pollinators.
