Bees play a crucial role in maintaining the balance and health of our ecosystem. However, challenges such as climate change and habitat loss threaten their survival particularly in urban areas. With support from #HKEXFoundation, Beetales is launching a 12-month professional bee rescue training course to promote eco-friendly methods for beehive management. During the course, beehives in urban areas are safely relocated by volunteers, ensuring these essential pollinators can continue to thrive, maintaining ecological balance and supporting biodiversity. The next time you see a beehive, try to avoid using insecticides right away. Instead, contact Beetales to learn how we can protect these pollinators that are crucial to our environment. Corporates can also incorporate flowering and fruiting plants into their landscaping design, providing bees with necessary foraging spaces and contributing to the creation of bee-friendly urban spaces. Watch the video below to learn more about the project! 🐝🌳 蜜蜂對保育我們的環境非常重要。然而，氣候變化和棲息地喪失等挑戰威脅著蜜蜂的存活。 在 #香港交易所慈善基金 的資助下，Beetales 推出了為期 12 個月的拯救蜜蜂服務訓練，推廣生態友善的蜂巢管理方法，培訓專業義工安全地重新安置城市中的蜂巢，確保這些重要的傳粉者能繼續繁衍生息，維持生態平衡和維護生物多樣性。 在下次看見蜂巢時，不要擔心也不要用殺蟲劑驅除牠們。最簡單的方法是聯絡Beetales幫忙處理，並了解如何保育這群對環境至關重要的傳粉昆蟲。企業更可在園藝設計中加入開花和結果植物，為蜜蜂提供所需的採蜜空間，促進一個更適合蜜蜂生存的城市環境。 立即觀看以下影片了解更多。🐝🌳
