How Climate Change Is Trapping The Worlds Bumblebees

Climate Change: Bumblebees Face Extinction As Population Drops By 46%

Climate Change: Bumblebees Face Extinction As Population Drops By 46% Researchers say that human assisted migration may be required to save bumblebees. With their large body size and fuzzy hair, bumble bees are more adapted to colder climates and do not tolerate extended periods of high temperatures very well. this means bad news for bumble bees during heat waves, which have become more frequent and severe due to climate change.

One aspect of climate change is an increasing number of days with extreme heat. "climate chaos" has caused widespread losses of bumblebees across continents, according to scientists. a new analysis shows the likelihood of a bee being found in any given place in europe. Climate change appears to be a major culprit, driving temperature spikes and extreme heat waves that—combined with pesticide use, disease, and habitat loss—may threaten the insects with.

In a new article published in frontiers in bee science, scientists identify rising heat as a potential culprit for the decline in bumblebee populations worldwide, compromising bumblebees’ ability to construct livable nests in which healthy larvae can develop. Insights from bumble bees suggest that, for diverse invertebrates, predicting climate change impacts will require a more nuanced understanding of the effects of heat exposure and additional studies of carry over effects and compensatory responses by colonies. Newly published research from the laboratory of professor neal williams, a pollination ecologist in the uc davis department of entomology and nematology (and close friend and colleague of thorp), indicates a substantial shift in bumble bee communities. New research shows that climate change and habitat loss are causing widespread decline among bumblebees in north america and europe — and putting ecosystems that depend on these pollinators.
