David’s bee beard – help save our bees!
The number of honey bees in the UK has halved over the past 15 years; a loss with huge ramifications as these little guys are responsible for pollinating over a third of our food. That means one in three mouthfuls of the grub us Brits guzzle is produced by bees.
So fewer bees in our fields means less food for us and less cash for the Kingdom. In fact, due to their vital role in the agricultural process, honey bees are estimated to be worth around £200million to the British economy.
What can I do to help?
Tweet a message of support to our very special bee beard. Once we’ve collected 10,000 of your lovely messages, we’ll hand deliver them to Number 10 on fancy stationary as a proper petition.
If you’re brave enough to don a real bee beard, let us know. We just might pick you to be the brave lad/y to hand over this Twittiton to Mister Cameron.
To show your support and Tweet to the petition, just go to http://www.cameronsbeebeard.com
