Fl ight of the Bumblebee
Increasingly ample accommodations in Oslo now greet the
city's endangered bumblebee population. Compared to
bees trying to survive without nectar-rich fl owers in other
urban environments, Nordic bumblebees receive the royal
treatment along the world's fi rst " bumblebee highway. "
Completed in May 2015, the corridor features pollen
stations every 250 meters and various housing options.
ByBi, an organization that pinpoints areas in need of nutrients with a grey symbol, calls
for public action. Suggestions for involvement range from planting a pot of marigolds
to incorporating deadwood into a residential garden to
constructing an insect hotel. Participants can upload a
picture of their contribution to the map, working to
diminish the gray areas.
With six out of 35 bees endangered in
Norway, agricultural consequences are a
driving force behind the need to protect the
city's bumblebee population. Crops such as
fruits and berries depend on pollination, so
more bumblebees mean greater crop yields.
