Plan Bee: Combating the Declining Bee Population

For many years, a troubling trend has been preoccupying botanists and scientists. Honey bees are disappearing or dying — a phenomenon known as Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD). Last year alone, 44% of the bee colonies in the U.S. disappeared. While CCD is indeed bad for honey bees, a larger problem looms for humans.

Since the reform of the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) was passed by the Senate and signed into law two months ago, the EPA has received mounting pressure to deliver on promised regulatory improvements and demonstrate their commitment to the spirit of the new law.

Asbestos, a proven carcinogen, may be one of the first on that list as growing public awareness and civic pressure push the EPA to take action.
