This may be old news, it may be twaddle, but I thought I'd share it in case it isn't.

Interesting, and not complete twaddle. I don't think any of us who have been around bees for a few years expect the problems to be just one thing. It is probable that various chemicals play a part in bee losses, not just neonicotonides. Similarly, in this country, varroa plays an important role as it weakens the colony too.
