The intent of our project is to educate the public of the importance of bee diversity and - the conservation of bees. For the scope of this project the focus will be on bumble bees in North East America. Bumble bees are responsible for pollinating a large portion of wildflowers and other plants and because different bumble bee species prefer different plants it is important to - have a diverse bee population to maintain a diverse plant population. Therefore, it is important to not only to reduce bumble bee decline but to preserve the diversity of bumble bee species. Our goal for this project is to educate people on the different species of bumble bees along with the importance of trying to preserve the diversity in bees.
