Large-scale declines in bee abundance and species richness over the last decade have sounded an alarm, given crucial pollination services that bees provide. Population dips specifically been noted for both managed feral species. The simultaneous increased cultivation of bee-dependent agricultural crops has rise to additional concern. As a result, there surge scientific research investigating potential stressors impacting bees. A group environmental anthropogenic negatively isolated. Habitat destruction diminished availability floral resources nest habitats, while massive monoculture plantings limited access variety pollens nectars. rapid spread resistance buildup various parasites, pathogens, pests current control methods are implicated deteriorating health. Similarly, many pesticides widely applied on within beehives toxic global distribution honey colonies (including queens with attendant bees) bumble from crop events linked pathogen stress competition native resources. Climatic alterations disrupted synchronous emergence flower blooming reduced diverse resources, leading physiological adaptations. Interactions amongst multiple created colossal maladies hitting at one time, some cases delivering additive impacts. Initiatives including development wild assessment pesticide toxicity undertaken efforts ameliorate declines. In this review, recent findings regarding impact these strategies mitigating them discussed.

The documentation of many rare or declining bee species in urban green spaces has led to a recent focus on cities as conservation targets. However, for pollinator succeed long term, we argue that the opinions and values local community members must be prioritized more explicitly. In our experience, is difficult achieve when aesthetic safety concerns residents are not reconciled with goals habitat designs practitioners. Similarly, from ecology perspective, questions concerning optimal design management practices habitats remain unresolved. It hope frank discussion challenges associated public will inspire thoughtful consideration how best implement new initiatives cities.

Wild bees are facing a global decline mostly induced by numerous human factors for the last decades. In parallel, public interest their conservation increased considerably, namely through scientific studies relayed in media. spite of this broad interest, lack knowledge and understanding subject is blatant reveals gap between awareness understanding. While extensively studied, information on measures often scattered literature. We now beyond precautionary principle experts calling effective actions to promote wild bee diversity enhancement environment quality. review, we draw general up-to-date assessment methods, as well efficiency current projects that try fill gaps optimize measures. Targeting bees, focused our attention (i) protection restoration habitats, (ii) anthropogenic (iii) implementation made tools, (iv) how deal with invasive alien species, finally (v) communicate efficiently accurately. This review can be considered needed catalyst implement concrete qualitative conversation bees.

Expanding involvement of the public in citizen science projects can benefit both volunteers and professional scientists alike. Recently, has come into focus as an important data source for reporting monitoring United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Since bees play essential role pollination ecosystem service, involving them have a high potential attaining SDGs. By performing systematic review studies on bees, we assessed how these could contribute towards SDG monitoring, also verified compliance with principles. Eighty eight published from 1992 to 2020 were collected. 15 (Life Land) 17 (Partnerships) most outstanding, potentially contributing targets related biodiversity protection, restoration sustainable use, capacity building establishing multi stakeholder partnerships. 2 (Zero Hunger), 4 (Quality Education), 11 (Sustainable Cities Communities) addressed. Studies found produce new knowledge, apply methods improve quality, invest open access publishing. Notably, volunteer participation was mainly restricted collection. Further challenges include extending initiatives developing countries, where only few are underway.

Citizen science is a powerful tool for connecting members of the public with research and obtaining large amounts data. However, it far less commonly implemented in developing countries than developed countries. We conducted large‐scale citizen‐science program monitoring honey bee ( Apis mellifera ) colony losses Argentina to examine how national consortium composed local coordinators two different recruitment strategies influenced volunteer participation. These consisted online questionnaires face‐to‐face interviews beekeepers record health issues. found that use both was necessary because they reached profiles locations, therefore survey's results. Furthermore, participation increased when number higher, regardless strategy. findings could also apply other countries, where lack internet access some potential volunteers, logistical constraints such as long distances, poor infrastructure hamper implementing programs.
