Dozens of honey bees, which usually feed on wild flowers after leaving their hives (蜂房) in the campus gardens, were tricked into the cottage to feed from an artificial flower. Only one bee was allowed in at a time, and their visits to artificial flowers were videoed and timed under different fan speeds, which mimicked (模拟) calm and windy days.
But the rearchers are trying to help them: it is a controlled experiment that reveals how hi
gh wind speeds significantly reduce the efficiency of their feeding.
With no wind, the bees on average took nectar (花蜜) from 5.45 flowers during their 90-cond time trial. When wind speeds were incread, this fell to an average of 3.73 flowers.
麦克雷大招>不争气的眼泪Rearchers also examined the indirect impact of higher winds by moving the flowers.
The findings reveal that, while flower movement did not appear to have an effect on the bees, the movement of air from the fans made them much more hesitant to take off from a flower, with time taken ranging from an initial 0.05 conds to 54 conds.
Georgia Hennessy, lead author of the rearch, said that one possible reason for the wind causing hesitancy was that small increas in wind speed reduced the bees’ body temperature, so they require longer to warm up the flight muscles required to take off.
“With wind speeds predicted to increa in the years ahead, understanding how we can help bees in a changing climate is becoming ever more pressing. Although we can’t do m

uch to control or stop the wind, we can take steps to reduce its impact on bees, such as placing hives in sheltered locations,” said Hennessy.
The UN’s Food and Agriculture Organization warned last year that the decline in global bee populations was a “threat to global food curity and diversity”.
Dave Goulson, professor of biology at the University of Susx, said:“Bees already face many pressures in the modern world, such as loss of habitats and exposure to pesticides (杀虫剂), and a great many are in decline. Coping with increasingly windy weather under climate change may be the final straw.”

In the United States alone, about 30% of all food that is harvested is thrown away. Often this food is not consumed due to early spoilage(腐烂).To arrive at harvest, produce must be grown through a strict agricultural process, which requires a great deal of resources including money, labor, water, and energy.
Hazel Technologies, a Chicago - bad startup that created a small drop - in packet to keep banans and other produce from turning prematurely brown, is starting to produce a lot of green. Having raid 70 million in a completed investment round, the 6 - year - old company aims to launch their products in every major agricultural economy on Earth.
Hazel works with more than 160 companies across 12 countries. Its product delivers an odorless vapor (无味的气体) in sugar - packet sized inrts called sachets. When dropped in boxes. of produce, the sachet can as much as triple (三倍) shelf life. Moreover, Hazel’s newly - funded MCP technology oan increa the produce’s resistance to ethylene - a chemical promoting growth.
In addition to growers, veral grocery chains u the Hazel product and rvice to keep produer fresher longer. This year, Hazel projects its product and rvice will be ud with more than 6. 3 bilion pounds of produce, preventing more than 500 million pounds from going to waste.
“The company said its profits, which tripled last year, are under market for us is very, very
large, ” said Mouat, CEO of the company. He expects Hazel to be in 20 countries by 2025, with international business accounting for 75% of annual income.
