Big Bees

“Scientists Have Some Wild Ideas for Solving Our Big Bee Problem” The science disciplines this article presents are the study of applied environmental and animal science. Environmental science is the study of the environment and what affects it and animal science is the study of a role of an animal, which is why the article “Scientists Have Some Wild Ideas for Solving Our Big Bee Problem” its categorized under these disciplines because it is describing what in the bees do in the environment and what would happen if these new robot bees cannot replace the dying bee species. This article also fits under the of applied science because it is basing its discovery off of past research and discoveries from bees to make robots to mimic what roles they do in the world. The relevance of robot bees in my everyday life is, at the moment, not important because there are still enough bees to continue their pollination role in the environment. But in the future they could be an essential part of my life as the bee species continue to die out, creating many issues other than just pollination of plants such as: plants not reproducing, an increase in carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, and crops not growing. These robot bees could …show more content…
This controversy could be a big one as these robot bees become more of a reality because they would be self-controlled and could easily run into either a person unexpectedly causing injuries to both the person and the robot bee. I personally agree with this controversy because drone technology has not advance far enough for them to fly by themselves through highly inhabited areas without hitting a living organism. But once they are able to maneuver terrain without hitting moving organisms, I feel as if they could be one of next big inventions that keeps earth spinning for a little
