How Do Bees Help The Environment? A Refresher

Bees are essential for our environment because they help many plants to reproduce. They do this by moving pollen from one flower to another, which helps plants grow and produce food. Bees also help keep our environment healthy by supporting many plants and animals. They benefit us because they make things like honey and beeswax, which we can use in many ways.
