Jessica Ball current events 3/21

                                     Current Events: The Honey Nut Cheerios Bee is Missing
      Buzz the Bee from the Honey Nut Cheerios box is missing. Parasites and harmful human activity have been killing off bees, which are a crucial part to our world food supply. Without bees we would not be able to have fruit, vegetables, or any products made from fruit or vegetables. Buzz has been removed from the boxes to raise awareness to this cause. General Mills has been sending seed packets to concerned consumers, so they can plant bee friendly habitats. The company has also been building habitats of its own to help the Bring Back the Bees Campaign.
     Honey Nut Cheerios are my personal favorite cereal and I will not be able to eat it if all of the honey is gone. I also love honey in general so if the bees die out and I get no honey I will not be very happy. Also fruits and vegetables play such a big role in everyone's life around the world so without bees to pollinate the plants, they won't grow, and food prices will raise. Food is already expensive enough nowadays and many people will not be able to eat healthy at all anymore is the food prices rise any higher.
