Pollination is a fundamental process for the survival of our ecosystems. However, bees and other pollinators, such as butterflies, bats and hummingbirds, are increasingly under threat from human activities.

To raise awareness of the importance of pollinators, the threats they face and their contribution to sustainable development, the United Nations designated 20 May as World Bee Day.

 

The main venue of the World Bee Day Celebration in China in Zhongyi Township of Shizhu Tujia Autonomous County, southwest China's Chongqing, May 20, 2021. May 20 marks the World Bee Day. This year's World Bee Day Celebration in China, themed "Honeybee, Big Dreams, A program for Rural Revitalization", was held in Zhongyi Township of Shizhu County. In recent years, China's beekeeping industry has made a lot of remarkable practices in promoting poverty alleviation and rural revitalization, and has helped many impoverished households to lift themselves out of poverty and increase their income. The current development of beekeeping industry in Shizhu County covers 179 administrative villages and 6,879 households of bee farmers. In 2020, the annual output value of beekeeping industry in Shizhu County reached 520 million yuan (about 80.7 million U.S. dollars).
