  Hey,
  
  the impacts of bee extinction would be massive, because they pollinate 70 of the around 100 crop species that feed 90% of the world. We would probably also lose the plants these bees pollinate, which would result in effects across the food chain, with the animal feeding on the plan species possibly suffering too. – It would be very scary!

  I’d say most humans would die, but not all. Without bees to pollinate them, most of the plants we use for food (or for feeding animals we eat) would die, and we’d never be able to feed all the people on the planet with whatever food we were still able to grow. It would be a terrible thing to happen the planet 🙁
