‘Longtime readers of Natural News are already aware that global honeybee populations are on the decline – so much so, that now researchers are quickly trying to develop “robo-bees” to replace them.
The problem is, no one really knows if bot bees can mimic the pollination techniques of the real bees responsible for pollinating one-third of the world’s food supply.
