Real reason for bee collapse

I read with interest John Hearne’s article on the decline of the bee population (Forum, Sept 13) caused by colony collapse disorder (CCD), where various possible reasons for the decline were discussed.

However, it was disappointing yet again to see the omission of the main cause of CCD, which is microwave radiation. Is it not about time this open secret was discussed by the media before it is too late?

Must advertising revenue and sponsorship always come before the truth — even if it means threatening the world’s food supply on which we depend for survival? All knowledgeable and independent scientists now accept the growth of the mobile phone industry and our addiction to all things wireless has coincided, not just with the decline of bee populations, but also with an increase in public health problems.
