Every year on 20 May, we celebrate World Bee Day<\/a> to remind everyone how important bees are. Bees help plants grow by moving pollen between flowers. This is called pollination, and it helps almost 90% of flowering plants and more than 75% of the food we eat grow strong and healthy.<\/p>\n

But bees are in danger. Cutting down trees, pollution, climate change, and using chemicals on farms are making it hard for bees to survive. If we protect bees, we also help protect forests, soil, and all the animals and plants that live on land.<\/p>\n
