Increased frequency and intensity of extreme weather events:

• Bees are sensitive to extreme temperatures, droughts and floods. These events reduce food availability and destroy bee colonies.
• Heat waves and droughts reduce nectar and pollen production, limiting bees' food supply.
• Floods destroy hives and bee colonies, reducing the number of bees in the area.

Changes in plant flowering:

• Climate change is affecting the timing of plant flowering. Bees must adapt to new flowering patterns to find enough food.
• Some plants are flowering earlier or later due to climate change, reducing their availability to bees.
• Changes in plant flowering also affect honey production and the quality of bee products.

Spread of diseases and parasites:

• Warmer and wetter conditions encourage the spread of diseases and parasites that attack bees.
• Bees are weakened by climate change and are more susceptible to diseases and parasites.
• Bee diseases and parasites reduce bee numbers and honey production.

Biodiversity reduction:

• Climate change is affecting plant biodiversity, reducing the availability of food for bees.
• Monocultures and the use of pesticides reduce biodiversity and food availability for bees.
• Reduced biodiversity also affects honey production and the quality of bee products.

Impacts on pollination:

• Bees are important pollinators of plants, and their decline can therefore have serious consequences for food production.
• The decline in bee numbers affects plant pollination and fruit and vegetable production.
• Climate change and bee decline threaten food security and biodiversity.

Solutions:

• Support for beekeeping and bee protection.
• Planting plants beneficial to bees.
• Reducing the use of pesticides and herbicides.
• Support for organic farming.
• Fight against climate change.

Conclusion:

Climate change is a serious threat to bees and pollination. Protecting bees and combating climate change are important for preserving biodiversity and food security.
