Researchers reveal major factor in bumblebee decline, and it’s exactly what you’d think

Bumblebees are on the decline. This isn’t exactly a revelation, and without bees to help pollinate plants, the world will suffer. Now, though, researchers say they’ve found a major new factor in the bumblebee decline, and of course, it is tied to climate change.

The culprit, the researchers say, comes down to nests rising above 35 degrees Celsius, which causes the heat to become lethal to the bumblebees inside. These creatures can usually survive temperatures up to 36 degrees Celsius, with the ability to thermoregulate to help stave off heat.
