Clearing forests to grow more food makes the planet hotter and drier.
Forests help create rain.
Remove them, and soils degrade.

We have partnered with Ecology & Co – the latest buzz in alcohol free beverages – in a collaboration designed to extend our work to benefit bees and biodiversity.

Their Manuka inspired range supports the hardworking bees behind their ingredients.

1% of every Ecology & Co sale globally will go to The World Bee Project to fund our work to protect pollinators, people and the planet.

You can’t fix degraded soil with more fertiliser.
Living soils need structure, biology, and moisture - not just chemicals.

Ecology & Co's new Manuka-inspired collection is live in New Zealand!

1% of every Ecology & Co can and bottle sold globally supports bees.

Every sip you take helps protect pollinators, people and the planet.

Climate change is drying soils - then washing them away.
Longer droughts.
More intense rain.
Less recovery time.

1% of every Ecology & Co can and bottle sold globally supports bees.

Why does this matter?

Because bees are responsible for pollinating the plants that support biodiversity and food systems across the planet.

Let bees pollinate. Drink to Life.

Soil isn’t dirt.
It’s a living system that stores carbon, regulates water, and grows food.
When soil degrades, everything above it suffers.

We often think tracking bees means following them through the air.

But the real story is happening inside the hive. 🐝

Through the incredible “waggle dance,” bees share precise directions, distance, and even quality of food sources. All in complete darkness, surrounded by thousands of others. It’s communication, navigation, and decision-making rolled into one.

By decoding these dances, researchers aren’t just learning where bees go, they’re uncovering how they think, adapt, and survive in changing environments.

This study highlights something critical:
Wild bee populations are far more sensitive to extreme weather than previously understood.

And considering that wild bees are effective pollinators, this isn’t just an environmental issue; it’s an agricultural one.

Climate change, combined with habitat loss, pesticides, and disease, is compounding pressure on already fragile populations.

What if bees “social distance” too? 🐝

When faced with deadly viruses like Israeli Acute Paralysis Virus (IAPV), honey bees don’t rely on strong immune systems- they change their behaviour.

Infected bees are avoided. Fed less. Kept at a distance.

A natural form of social distancing.

But there’s a twist.

This same virus can disguise infected bees, helping them slip past hive guards and spread infection faster across colonies.

Understanding these behaviours is key to protecting them today.

When we talk about bees, most of us picture honeybees in hives.
But that’s only a small part of the story.

In the UK:
🐝 270 known bee species
🐝 24 bumblebee species
🐝 200+ solitary bees

Research now shows that extreme weather conditions can reduce solitary bees' reproductive success, threatening future populations.

Protecting wild bees means protecting their habitats- wildflower meadows, hedgerows, woodlands, and gardens rich in nectar.

No wild bees = fewer apples, cherries, and crops.

New studies show that heatwaves can silently damage red mason bees' reproductive health, reducing fertility and egg production.

The result? A potential drop in pollinator populations the following year.

The ripple effect? Our entire food system.

Not all bees live in hives. In fact, most are wild and far more vulnerable to climate change. 🐝

In the UK alone, there are over 250 species of wild, free-flying bees, including solitary species that don’t live in colonies or produce honey.

Unlike honeybees, they cannot regulate nest temperatures collectively, making them highly exposed to extreme weather.

We celebrate honey bees, yet Britain's greatest pollinators often work unnoticed.

Over 250 of our 270 bee species are wild native bees, many living alone in tiny nests.

New research shows just three days of extreme heat can threaten the next generation.

Protecting wild bees protects our future.

For decades, we thought royal jelly was the key to creating a queen bee.

But new research shows that’s only part of the story.

When queen larvae are raised in ordinary worker cells-even with the same diet- their survival drops, and those that do survive develop into smaller queens.

The difference is the environment.
