Everyone knows the honey bee, but it’s just one species – there are 20,000 others! Humans have depended on bees – both wild and managed – for millennia. But as bee populations collapse around the world, can we save them before it’s too late? This screening will explore the amazing species of the honey bees!

Enjoy this family friendly screening followed by a panel discussion with Neil Losin the co-creator, co-director and lead writer of Human Footprint and Margarita López-Uribe, Associate Professor of Entomology at Penn State.
