Can a brotha pollinate?


A new study shows carbon emissions prevent flowers from attracting bees and other insects to pollinate them and this could potentially harm our crops.

This issue has been noted by CNN and other sources as well. I even saw a Hagen-Dazs commercial on TV noting how this issue has affected them. The ice cream maker depends on honeybees for pollination and has been attracted to federal grants and funds.

I for one think we need to help the little guys keep doing their job. I can’t envision a life without my Ben and Jerry’s Phish Food.

Are you certain that its carbon emissions and not the look of this particular bee that is affecting pollination?? I mean, that bee is really scary.
