crookedindifference: More Scientific Studies Indicate That Cell Phones MAY be Harming Bees Scientists may have found the cause of the world’s sudden dwindling population of bees – and cell phones may be to blame. Research conducted in Lausanne, Switzerland has shown that the signal from cell phones not only confuses bees, but also may lead to their death. Over 83 experiments have yielded the same results. The impact has already been felt the world over, as the population of bees in the U.S. and the U.K. has decreased by almost half in the last thirty years – which coincides with the popularization and acceptance of cell phones as a personal device. But also, via the Daily Mail: But British bee expert Norman Carreck of Sussex University said: ‘It’s an interesting study but it doesn’t prove that mobile phones are responsible for colony collapse disorder. If you physically knock a hive, or open one up to examine it, it has the same result. ‘And in America many cases of colony collapse disorder have taken place in remote areas far from any mobile phone signals.’ Read the study here.
