DESCRIPTION:You are invited to attend a FREE screening of the film VANISHIN
 G\nOF THE BEES!\nCo-director Maryam Henein will also be available for a sp
 ecial Q\n& A session after the film.\n\nSynopsis: Honeybees have been myst
 eriously disappearing across the\nplanet\, literally vanishing from their 
 hives.\n\nKnown as Colony Collapse Disorder\, this phenomenon has brought
 \nbeekeepers to crisis in an industry responsible for producing\napples\, 
 broccoli\, watermelon\, onions\, cherries and a hundred other\nfruits and 
 vegetables. Commercial honeybee operations pollinate\ncrops that make up o
 ne out of every three bites of food on our\ntables.\n\nVanishing of the Be
 es follows commercial beekeepers David\nHackenberg and Dave Mendes as they
  strive to keep their bees\nhealthy and fulfill pollination contracts acro
 ss the U.S. The film\nexplores the struggles they face as the two friends 
 plead their\ncase on Capital Hill and travel across the Pacific Ocean in t
 he\nquest to protect their honeybees.\n\nFilming across the US\, in Europe
 \, Australia and Asia\, this\ndocumentary examines the alarming disappeara
 nce of honeybees and\nthe greater meaning it holds about the relationship 
 between mankind\nand mother earth. As scientists puzzle over the cause\, o
 rganic\nbeekeepers indicate alternative reasons for this tragic loss.\nCon
 flicting options abound and after years of research\, a\ndefinitive answer
  has not been found to this harrowing mystery.\nFilm narrated by Ellen Pag
 e.\nThis special screening is brought to you by MCSS\, MAA\, and the\nMcGi
 ll Library.\n\nRSVP at www.tinyurl.com/VanishingBeeAtMac\nQuestions?  Cont
