NEW STUDY: World’s Most-Used Weedkiller Found To Disrupt Honeybee Brains. For the sake of all living things, ban glyphosate now. SIGN THE PETITION: tinyurl.com/BanGlyphosateNow

New research published in the Journal of Experimental Biology suggests a widely used herbicide may have subtle but significant effects on honeybees. The study, published in the Journal of Experimental Biology, found that glyphosate can interfere with honeybee foraging behavior and may threaten hive stability over time. Glyphosate is commonly encountered by bees searching for food. The chemical works by blocking an enzyme plants need for photosynthesis. Since honeybees do not have this enzyme, glyphosate was long considered harmless to them. Although glyphosate does not usually kill honeybees outright, researchers suspected it could still produce subtle, harmful effects. They compared these effects to the drowsiness some people experience when taking over-the-counter antihistamines for allergies. After only 3 days, bees exposed to glyphosate showed a 13% decline in foraging activity along with changes in brain chemistry. “For a colony, a 13% reduction in foraging can be consequential. If the entire colony was exposed, this could lead to decreased pollination effectiveness and reduced honey production, risking colony survival and long-term stability,” said lead study author Margaret Couvillon.
