So if - or when - the world loses its black-and-yellow workers, the consequences will be dire.\n\nWhat is behind this catastrophe?\n\nViruses, parasites, pesticides and climate change have all been blamed. As has modern monoculture agribusiness.In this timely book, two keen amateur apiarists investigate all the claims and counterclaims with the help of scientists and beekeepers in Europe, America and beyond.\n\nThey ask the question that will soon be on everyone's lips: is there any possible way of saving the honeybees - and, with them, the world as we know it?","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49001285353691,"sku":"9780852651315-SECONDHAND","price":12.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/c851e6e4-35e4-4abe-8388-199405a42130.jpg?v=1784745394","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/9780852651315-secondhand-a-world-without-bees","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
