Campaigns For Bees
There have been a number of campaigns for bees happening all over the world, ranging from petitions and demonstrations to hunger strikes, lobbying, to planting wildflowers.
They involve beekeepers, conservationists, companies and concerned members of the public.
A number of films have been and continue to be produced.
