Almost a year ago, a Presidential Memorandum was issued in June requesting that all federal agencies work together to develop a cohesive plan for pollinator protection. Recently, it was reported that just over 40% of US Colonies had to be replaced last year which is interesting considering that commercial beekeepers reported losses approaching 90% over the course of the year. Has EPA and USDA created a resolution for protecting pollinators?

In this special series called “The Neonicotinoid View”, host June Stoyer and special guest co-host, Colorado beekeeper, Tom Theobald talk to Michele Colopy, Program Director, Executive Director of the Pollinator Stewardship Council. Stay tuned!
