Bumblebee Program

The Save The Bees Program at Save The Bees USA helps protect bumblebees. This program is very important for their survival.

Our Bumblebee Restoration Program creates safe homes where bumblebees can live and grow strong.

The program has three main parts. Each part works to keep bumblebees safe and supports a healthy environment. Supporting this will bring more visability!

HOW CAN WE SAVE BUMBLEBEES FROM DYING?

“The decline in populations and ranges of several species of bumblebees may be explained by issues of overheating of the nests and the brood,” the study’s lead author, ecologist Peter Kevan, a Professor Emeritus of Environmental Sciences at the University of Guelph, Learn more about the study’s findings in this statement.

Bees & Climate Change: How Environmental Conditions Affect Pollinators 🌎

Climate change refers to long-term shifts in temperature, weather patterns, and environmental conditions. These changes can influence how plants grow, when flowers bloom, and how pollinators like bees find food and nesting areas. Understanding how climate change affects bees helps communities make informed, practical decisions that support pollinators, agriculture, and healthy ecosystems.

🌡️ Changing temperatures and seasonal timing

Rising temperatures are shifting seasonal timing, causing flowers to bloom earlier and disrupting the natural life cycles of bees and other pollinators.
These climate-driven timing changes reduce food availability for bees and weaken pollination, biodiversity, and food systems.

⛈️ Extreme weather events

Extreme weather events such as heat waves, droughts, floods, and severe storms damage pollinator habitats and disrupt bee nesting, foraging, and survival.
As climate change increases the frequency and intensity of these events, bees face greater stress, habitat loss, and reduced pollination capacity.

🌾 Environmental stressors & land practices

Modern land practices, pesticide use, and habitat fragmentation increase environmental stress on bees and other pollinators.
These stressors reduce forage diversity, weaken pollinator health, and limit the ability of ecosystems to adapt to climate change.

Our Approach at Save The Bees USA

Save The Bees USA focuses on education-based solutions that help students and communities understand how climate change and environmental conditions affect pollinators. Through classroom programs, habitat awareness, and hands-on learning, we promote practical steps that support bees, agriculture, and long-term ecosystem health.

By teaching how environmental changes impact pollinators, we empower people to make informed choices that help protect bees today and into the future.

All About Bees

Honey bees and native bees—including bumblebees, carpenter bees, and sweat bees, are essential pollinators. As they collect pollen and nectar, they help flowering plants reproduce, crops grow, and ecosystems thrive.

How Flowers Support Bees

YOUR GARDEN MATTERS!

Bees rely on flowers for both food and survival:

  • Nectar provides energy and is converted into honey to feed the hive.
  • Pollen is a vital source of protein used to nourish larvae and young bees.
  • Flowering plants also offer shelter and nesting materials, making them essential for bee colonies to grow and thrive.

Planting bee-friendly flowers like lavender, daisies, black-eyed susans, sunflowers, and wildflowers helps bees collect what they need while supporting pollination and ecosystem health.

Why are bumblebees Important?

Explain What Save The Bees is About

Essential Pollinators Save The Bees emphasizes that bees pollinate over 70% of the crops that feed the world, making them crucial to global food security.

Declining Numbers Save Bees focuses on the sharp drop in bee numbers. Some types of bees are close to disappearing because of pesticides, loss of habitats, and climate change.

Environmental Guardians Save The Bees is important because bees help nature by pollinating plants. These plants support animals and keep ecosystems healthy. Without bees, many parts of nature would have a hard time surviving.

Educational Campaigns Save The Bees focuses on public education and advocacy to protect bee habitats.

Are all bee species affected by the decline? Yes, the decline in bee numbers affects many kinds of bees, not just honey bees. Solitary bees like bumble bees, carpenter bees, and sweet bees are also in danger. They face problems like losing their homes, exposure to pesticides, and changes from climate change.

 Visit our news pages to learn more about bees across the United States.

How does climate change impact bee populations? Climate change is a big problem for bees. It changes their homes and the timing of flowers blooming. This makes it harder for bees to find food.

 Weather changes make it hard for bees to find nectar and pollen, which they need to stay healthy.

What is the role of corporations in the movement? They can help by using safe ways to farm that don’t hurt bees. This means using fewer bad chemicals, helping with bee projects, and following nature-friendly rules.

 Imagine a future where big companies in the U.S. save bees. Each company could help by donating, setting up beehives, or teaching people why bees matter.

 Save The Bees USA hopes for a time when companies help keep bees safe and healthy.

Are urban areas contributing to bee decline?Building cities can take away places where bees live. But people in cities can still help bees! One way to help is by creating bee-friendly spaces. This could be a small garden or a few flowers on a balcony. Every little bit helps.

People can also support community gardens in their neighborhoods. These gardens give bees food and safe places to visit.

Another way to help is by asking for more green spaces in cities, like parks and flower-filled areas. Green spaces help bees find the food they need.

When people in cities create safe places for bees, they help protect bees from the changes that come with building cities.

How does the movement address pesticide use? The movement is working to use fewer chemicals that hurt bees. One type of harmful chemical is called neonicotinoids. These chemicals are very bad for bees.

 The movement wants to make rules to stop using harmful chemicals. They are also looking for safer ways to help plants grow. They show people how these chemicals hurt bees.

 Some states have made laws to ban chemicals that harm bees. You can check to see if your state is helping too.

What is the impact of bee decline on agriculture? The drop in bee numbers is hurting farming. Bees help pollinate many crops. If there are fewer bees, we might not grow as much food.

 This can cause problems with the amount of food we have. It can also affect the world’s economy.

 We need to learn more about other types of bees too. Native bees and solitary bees help farming in important ways.

How can schools participate in the Save the Bees movement? Schools can help by teaching students about bees. Planting bee-friendly gardens at school lets students learn and save bees simultaneously.

 Schools can also have events, invite bee experts, and get students involved in saving bees. This helps kids learn to care for the environment.

 Programs like the Observation Hive at Save The Bees USA let students see how beehives work up close.
