Honey Bees + Bayer + EPA + Warburg Family + Federal Reserve = Bee deaths Purdue University Study: Clothianidin 100% toxic to bees. They discovered that both clothianidin and thiamethoxam, another component of neonicotinoid insecticides, persist in “extremely high levels” in planter exhaust material produced during the planting of crops treated with these insecticides. This runs contrary to industry claims that the chemicals biodegrade and are not a threat. The research team also found neonicotinoid compounds in soil, including in fields where the chemicals were not even sprayed, as well as on various plants and flowers visited by bees. Based on their analysis, the researchers involved with the study determined that bees actively transfer contaminated pollen from primarily neonicotinoid-treated corn crops and bring it back to their hives. The bees also transfer neonicotinoid compounds to other plants and crops not treated with the chemicals, which shows just how persistent these chemicals truly are in the environment. The pesticides used are manufactured by Bayer pharmaceuticals, which used to be part of I.G. Farben, a German chemical company that funded and provided chemicals for Hitler’s concentration camps. The Warburg family was heavily influential with that company, having family members on the board of directors and also on the board at the Federal Reserve in the United States.
