Sadly, over the past 15 years, colonies of bees have been disappearing, and the reason remains unknown. Referred to as ‘colony collapse disorder’, billions of honey bees across the world are leaving their hives, never to return. In some regions, up to 90% of bees have disappeared!
“I used to think that our food system was entirely dependent on the world’s pollinators; that without them we would starve. But this is not true. Around three-quarters of our crops depend on pollinators to some extent, but only one-third of the total food we produce does.” (p. 208)

Local raw honey is very good for you. We have about 20 hives at my in-laws and we sell it locally. Lots of quality properties when it’s not heat treated or over processed
This is an environmentalist myth. I refer you to Hannah Ritchie's book:
Stop fear-mongering, dude.
This might be true but I definitely don’t see as many bees out and about like I used too unless I’m near hives
