Recognizing the dimensions of the pollination crisis and its links to biodiversity and human livelihoods, the Convention on Biological Diversity has made the conservation and sustainable use of pollinators a priority. Intensive farming practices, land-use change, mono-cropping, pesticides and higher temperatures associated with climate change all pose problems for bee populations and, by extension, the quality of food we grow. If this trend continues, nutritious crops, such as fruits, nuts and many vegetable crops will be substituted increasingly by staple crops like rice, corn and potatoes, eventually resulting in an imbalanced diet. Close to 35 percent of invertebrate pollinators, particularly bees and butterflies, and about 17 percent of vertebrate pollinators, such as bats, face extinction globally. Present species extinction rates are 100 to 1,000 times higher than normal due to human impacts. Join the event on the 20th of May 2021 at 13:00 (CEST) and follow the conversations on social media using the hashtags #WorldBeeDay #Savethebees ! Do you know all the different pollinators?īees are under threat. It will be an occasion to raise awareness of how everyone can make a difference to support, restore and enhance the role of pollinators. The event will call for global cooperation and solidarity to counter the threats posed by the COVID-19 pandemic to food security and agricultural livelihoods alongside prioritizing environmental regeneration and pollinator protection. The fourth observance of World Bee Day will be celebrated - in the midst of a still ongoing pandemic - with a virtual event organized by the FAO on under the theme “Bee engaged – Build Back Better for Bees”. We all depend on pollinators and it is, therefore, crucial to monitor their decline and halt the loss of biodiversity. The goal is to strengthen measures aimed at protecting bees and other pollinators, which would significantly contribute to solving problems related to the global food supply and eliminate hunger in developing countries. To raise awareness of the importance of pollinators, the threats they face and their contribution to sustainable development, the UN designated 20 May as World Bee Day. Not only do pollinators contribute directly to food security, but they are key to conserving biodiversity. Nearly 90% of the world’s wild flowering plant species depend, entirely, or at least in part, on animal pollination, along with more than 75% of the world’s food crops and 35% of global agricultural land. Pollination is, however, a fundamental process for the survival of our ecosystems. Koko.will do her best and try to be as good as you on day! Koko will get better and better! Koko promises! Koko was able to re-create Mother's dishes! Koko.Bees and other pollinators, such as butterflies, bats and hummingbirds, are increasingly under threat from human activities.
