Climate change can’t affect blind bee’s, (because there are none) but it still affects bee’s. It will affect the environment in which they live in, use to build their homes, and feed themselves. It will change the temperatures in which they live, and make it harder for them to heat up their hive during cold weather, and cool it down during the summer. I’d assume bee-keeping helps quite a bit, because those bee’s will have the resources they need with the help of the humans taking care of them. We need to help make climate change a smaller problem, or soon it won’t be just us that it’s harming – it will be the things that help nurture the earth and nature.
