Cell phones get blamed for a lot of things: car accidents, public bad manners, even brain cancer. But now scientists have come up with a new reason for us to worry about cell phones and other mobile devices—declining bee populations. London’s The Independent reports that with bee colonies vanishing on various continents, researchers are theorizing that the radiation given off by cell phones could be the culprit. The bees’ internal navigation systems are affected by the radiation, causing them to lose their way back to their hives. Without the busy little bees, honey supplies and other crops that require pollination could suffer dramatically. And the Queen Bee is one lonely gal at night.
