SUMMARY:Screening of Vanishing of the Bees
DESCRIPTION:Honeybees have been mysteriously disappearing across the p
 lanet, literally vanishing from their hives!Known as Colony Collapse D
 isorder, this phenomenon has brought beekeepers to crisis in an indust
 ry responsible for producing apples, broccoli, watermelon, onions, che
 rries and a hundred other fruits and vegetables. Commercial honeybee o
 perations pollinate crops that make up one out of every three bites of
  food on our tables.Vanishing of the Bees follows commercial beekeeper
 s David Hackenberg and Dave Mendes as they strive to keep their bees h
 ealthy and fulfill pollination contracts across the U.S. The film expl
 ores the struggles they face as the two friends plead their case on Ca
 pital Hill and travel across the Pacific Ocean in the quest to protect
  their honeybees.On Thursday, August 11th, Village Vancouver is proud 
 to be co-sponsoring this event with Eternal Abundance and the Village 
 Vancouver Beekeeping Network, offering this viewing so that the public
  may learn about this mysterious turn of events and shed light on what
  is happening to the honey bee. Through the Village Vancouver Beekeepi
 ng Network, local get-togethers and educational events are organized f
 or beekeepers and anyone interested in beekeeping. We encourage all be
 e enthusiasts to join!Watch the film and hear from one of the film dir
 ectors, Maryam Henein. A Question and Answer period will follow the sc
 reening.$8 admission to cover costs including an organic snack.\n\nFo
