U of G’s ‘Bee Heroes’ Featured in Civil Eats

The critical task of saving the world’s bees is a race against time. International “bee heroes” are trying to find out exactly why bee populations are decreasing at an alarming rate, including the University of Guelph’s Prof. Ernesto Guzman and Prof. Nigel Raine. The two professors were featured in a Civil Eats article about people working on the front lines to rescue these pollinators, and in turn, salvage our ability to feed a growing population. Civil Eats provides daily commentary about the American food system.
