“Pollinators are really a keystone group that other organisms
rely on,” says Eric Mader. “Pollination is almost as
essential to life as water and oxygen.”
It is estimated that at least 80% of
plants on earth rely on pollinators in
order to reproduce. Without pollinators,
many of our favorite foods would fade
from existence. Imagine -- no coffee, no
chocolate!
one of every three bites of food we eat is dependent on pollinators, such as bees, butterflies and other critters, that play an enormous role in plant reproduction. it's obvious that pollinators are valuable.
