Bee and butterfly protests have been organized
There were no customers in the store when Tesco, a supermarket in Slovakia, opened its doors. Customers were shown what the earth might look like if bees and butterflies vanished from the planet. Because pollinators help develop and maintain the habitats that many species rely on for food and shelter, they are essential elements of our ecosystem. It is impossible to imagine a world without pollinators. Without them, humanity and all of the planet’s ecosystems would perish. If bees and butterflies didn’t exist, there would be half as many fruits and vegetables in our supermarkets.
As a general rule, people link bees and butterflies with stinging insects and honey-producing creatures. However, their significance goes much beyond that.
