Yes it's a worldwide issue.

For the States, you'll have heard about the tragedy of ~25000 bees dying in an Ohio carpark recently. That's been attributed to trees having been sprayed with insecticide.

It was one of the neonics and I'm still trying to find out whether that spray, whose name I didn't recognise, was one of the to-be-banned neonics over here. Whether or not it was the same kind of spray, I hope those bees didn't die in vain. I hope this tragedy is a wake-up call to American voters and campaigners.
