Scientists claim radiation from handsets are to blame for mysterious 'colony collapse' of bees...
...our love of the mobile phone could cause massive food shortages, as the world's harvests fail.
Note from Rayelan:
If cell phones do this to bees, what do they do to the rest of the planet? Humans, whales, plants? Will people wake up in time to put a stop to this? This is too dangerous for the usual left/right divide garbage! Will world leaders act in time to stop this... OR... is this their plan to get rid of 4/5s of the world's "useless eaters".
Are mobile phones wiping out our bees?
Scientists claim radiation from handsets are to blame for mysterious 'colony collapse' of bees

It seems like the plot of a particularly far-fetched horror film. But some scientists suggest that our love of the mobile phone could cause massive food shortages, as the world's harvests fail.
They are putting forward the theory that radiation given off by mobile phones and other hi-tech gadgets is a possible answer to one of the more bizarre mysteries ever to happen in the natural world - the abrupt disappearance of the bees that pollinate crops. Late last week, some bee-keepers claimed that the phenomenon - which started in the US, then spread to continental Europe - was beginning to hit Britain as well.
The theory is that radiation from mobile phones interferes with bees' navigation systems, preventing the famously homeloving species from finding their way back to their hives. Improbable as it may seem, there is now evidence to back this up.
