..... Don't we need more bees?

We need more native pollinators, and honey bees are very good at outcompeting them once they're introduced, threatening biodiversity and thus ecosystems.

Ah I'm in the UK where they are native pollinators

still not healthy for them to be 85% of what's pollinating crops, though
