Candidate as we hadnt planned at all for social media stuff to escalate like them. I made a video with a friend and we said this message has to get out into the world. The oath, there are far too few people teaching us about these an important insects and the whole topic. I think i so we just made a video clip and uploaded it, and it went viral and and with the next clips that happened again and again, the other ones, the, the yes. And now im finally reaching people so that more people can do it. And other people can start doing that on finding them. Its this thing is, the thing is, every one of us knows the planet, its going down, right . Everythings dying and stuff. Its right. I dont go and maybe thats also a reason why people watch the videos. I got because i show solution you them what you can do on your balcony in your garden, on a small scale to make the world a little bit more be friendly again or just generally more animal friendly. I think it might have a fee of 1. 00 to hit. Some of the interest is there that the topic of bees was just not really communicated. I think in a way that was accessible for young people who come for me. I dont know how to put it really like how do i sign the the is each year so she named us and were here between mean dawson telemundo at the bay of lou back on, you know, through the year i move up and down to pay was might be calling these depending on what different plans are in blue. Im Stephanie Eden chip. I am 46 years old and i run a small, sustainable dude. C, a p, a re on the baltic coast of the, uh it was, i started writing a book about re scaling as a b keeper about 2 years ago to encourage others to do the same video. I love how calm and focused it is to work at the hives. It makes me incredibly happy to capture the taste of spring and summer, and the gloss to attach naples to the honey joseph. Awesome. And to put them on the show for stay the ship, the end of the size of trying to find the same time. And theres a sketch funds in right, as i thought would be keeping in my data. So sees im with 3 young children. Thats really exciting. To see that they have stopped to, to naturally become curious about looking into the high end of the learning last about be and then like many adults, the quite relaxed and just use the senses to observe whats happening in the hive. How i worked in marketing in tea on hamburg and the lynn for many years and found city life and everything that goes with this incredibly exciting stuff that im position. There was something very personal and actually very beautiful happen. We have twins and thats suddenly called my entire professional life. And so question i have no prospect of my job at that time. But in a kind of perspective of could say the 5 time a high, so con, permission, okay. Once i swallow this job and i feel that something fundamental is about to change, not gotten it only just a moment ago that i have sales completely equal and committed by gloss and all you know, mid thirtys. We 1st invested the loss in our education and studies of time, and theres not much difference in earnings. Whats more, ive never had any reason to doubt that my employee offers its employees and Family Friendly working hours. I mean he informed to show by size what the details behind. So at the end of joseph, probably deciding just also family i seems to be catapulted out of everything ive accomplished so far and my idea of how equal everything should be. But its like a bubble. Well, come to reality. And as i from plaza, they come and there was a lead to it just intent is the key thing has really been the decision i made also having been treated like this in my professional lima. Im as i should be, it was certainly a reason to say, im going south end to toil. Ill just stop by and visit the work according to my own standards in my own value. And i can and much dave on mine. I can, and vaskins the, the chaplain iden, this fuse high school. I have the cl can, gosh, them is my, i have had my own the colony. It was in the garden here. It was one of the 1st ones mom had them. It was also a very nice colony and dispatches and it had a nice clean. So the whole colony was relaxed and lovely spent on the god i universe and the ocean tides have to be really well protected. Because without the bees, nothing would really work at all. And all living things would be quite a bit further behind without them. But its luke randall tobacco. Yeah. How low ready destroyed them . Good wilson. We once talked about pollination. You and you just need be us. Because otherwise nothing would grow. I got an excuse me, nothing at all to blame. No apple trees high. No, nothing at all. Kind of dominics the, ill stick on some of it. Can you pronounce your infection . So the one in germany and worldwide insect populations are declining, including the pollinators such as b as a alert, well publicized study a few years ago showed that once within the 27 years, a up to 70 percent of the insects, bio mass and nature reserves had declined. Im catalina schmidt, you were here at one of epic, a eyes test size. Were a Technology Company that uses a guy to try to find out how to analyze why insects are dying out. Im mess thats a lot. See here on site, were doing a trial with a total of 14 colonies fights each and its own tunnel where facility of plants are in bloom, which the bees love. Since i was a huge fan of the ones im monitoring the same food. In fact, this is our Monitoring System for b colonies of opinion. Its placed right by the hiv home and all these that enter or x that have to pass through this entrance area. How about then the camera gives us data on these images of the beast. Of we use Artificial Intelligence on the idols. If you take a closer look here, you can see just how much we can do here. We have up to 200. 00 b is going in and out and per minute kind of a fun. No human being can record that, which is why we use technology. It can help us automate something that we would not be able to track ourselves. How many bees go in and out . Fine. How many are caring . Poland, how many or non torn up by one of the students didnt provide spots sponsors . No incident with a 100 is a few been our very 1st study in this field was in 2019. And thats when we looked at the same as new nicotine. Orient behind or data tells us how b is that have been exposed to a treatment react time versus those that havent hung. Thats a part of getting a better understanding of how different pesticides affect these. Before we know that poland gathering has also decrease size. This means that the bees have pollinated less and the percentage of b is the gather. Pollen has also declined toxic gathering less pollen for a few days may not be a huge problem for honey bees. But we always looked at the wild bees as well. And if they dont find anything to eat for a few days, then that can be a much bigger problem because they have a much shorter life span any way plus hobbin. Thats why these consequences are very, very important, both effects and its important to be able to measure those stuff on the mess and come out of the complex eco system of the thing. Everything is interconnected, father, and if we create the foundations for the smallest creatures to thrive, then larger creatures can also live. Well, theyre the ones on these has been stem gate escaped. I essentially what do you see when we talk about bees dying out . Its not really about the honey beast, but all these wild be in the honey bees. Have the beekeepers who take care of them. But these wild beast just dont have anyone to the up. Thats why theyre the ones that are dying outright mounted any kind of causing all stabs in this. It was one down here as an insect hotel and thats awesome for the wild beast. And its also really easy. You simply drill holes and some would want to apologize. I solely this. I was, thats what it looks like when the wild bees live in there can be no bite as well. Its actually a good thing that there is some clay on it that i mean because it means the wild bees have moved in container and they wont read again until next year. Hank, its silvia when they flip somebody else and they are in these tubes for a year and then the next year theyre ready to go again. Yeah. And then the dumpster is it is office and basically i see it like this. Everyone has heard of honey bees. They open the door to Everything Else to do with nature. And if the honey bees are doing well, many other animals be these are probably doing well to feed on to out and well take the heaviest. Like on some, i mean think of us on thursday night, i just got myself some books and read them and i basically devoured all the books. I could get my hands on just to get an idea of what the different opinions are. Whats out there . Im going to hit it and go find like a business. And then i joined the Beekeepers Association and got to be calling me on the not what im looking at and then relatively quickly i got a bit more alternative and try it out. A lot of other things because of the Beekeepers Association that youre told how things are conventionally done and then the next. But im often more interested in how these actually live in nature, in old beehives or in long times ago. And then i will, i is leaving the, the, the display of guns. And while ive done this with a normal 3 trunks and i hollowed it out with the chainsaw and i saw it around for a day or so. And then also, and then theres also this entry door here of this show, know its quite a lot of work to build this kind of thing. But for me thats the best thing about it. Im guys i think i look a little btn. I mean, thats me. Yeah, i always have the being and i dont have the bees to harvest lots of honey. I experiment a lot, but i dont keep these because of the honey. Its because i find these animals fascinating is a piece of fussing into the on. I leave the honey inside for the volume list here. I took out maybe 5 combs for the family, so we have some hunting this week. I left the rest in there on the computer, all the boxes are all full of honey and i dont have to feed them sugar water or anything to my home so they can do their own thing. And i basically just look on in amazement, a stone that i have. I know that so that the obvious so awesome. These honey combs are so soft, but also so stable because theyre hexagon, thatd be there to his x. I gave him the form i think i need to know who could you ever make this . You can really stroke them. The people think these are aggressive. Very rarely. There are a few that go crazy, but if they wanted to sting me, they would have done that. All right, go ahead and hit the send button. I dont have a single thing with this. Im kind spacing regarding the image at some speed from a samsung. Ill go straight up and kinda im with now in data some of the beginning of august, which i have. I mean, weve just had a rain show and the small, so im just told you not to be using the hive. Now, one of the last generations of some of these, you know, they have a relatively short life time. About 4 weeks, they use of all the energy collecting net to impulse in the winter. B, as on the other hand, have to go into your house in the highest and must wound the queen to ensure the future of the coloring. Them one to 4 percent display to reset the you might have, you might be, youve got to live here in a wonderful ocean which is completely um, treated furnished. Its simply the best imaginable, Natural Environment for that as far as the transmission same cars invite in for shooting and fast. Itd be cheaper, but always the best buy is im fascinates me is how the b colonies have different characters. I dont want to see some calling, these are quite relaxed and i like to call them my hippie common way since the very common. Sure. And when i look into the, how do you super, relatively little this happening, the and the bees are just living in the moon, the monkey for an intox, and then get this there also insanely aggressive. Calling these with 10 or 20 be slowly towards you. These are often calling these that a very, very busy and was unbelievably hopes of bringing the honey. I see you struggled out enough. How many soup has to keep on saying one guy has to go when is climate offsets and kind of didnt have the time, but i thought just reading about it and then i went to be keeping coals and found a mental at the be Keepers Association. Fine before the yeah, thats fine. Yeah, its fine. The nice weekly came is a new member to one of our monthly bookkeeper meetings. Thats when we met her 1st. She listened carefully to what we oldsters have to say, buffy. I know its a front of you get 5, don for the tv Keepers Association answers. Every question is such a way thats every beekeeper knows what were talking about. Even if they dont know so much thats about what happens to the be calling in the spring summer. It was all before the harvest and after the harvest. No mean, im quit some ask just a minute softer, a brief us cool to sleep, please. The chairs to be Keepers Association in our region, an invitation lambs in my email inbox inviting me to a meeting the following thursday to the village. Pub, some excellent. I remember these old boys clubs only too well from my time in financial communications. I say quietly to myself, im sure about what to expect from the evening. And my prejudices turned out to be almost more than justified from the gulf as i entered the village pub, whose interior looks like it hasnt changed since at least the early 19 eighties. I see almost exclusively old, a gentleman and dignified for time, and to tie up my 1st gloves, me focus much side on the steps you need to get in on the tiny t if he has used turn on his energy to develop an exemplary a period. And she did it slightly differently than i suggested. She said no, i want to move away from styrofoam and plus to kind of do what i want to use, wouldnt hives that she did a good job. Im impressed that it works so well. Thats the oldest there. Yeah. Yeah. So our concept is going to stop as are this concept pass or . Yeah, ill be able to couple ones uh, definitely to the hobbies Beekeepers Association urgently needs young people to get involved because older be cheaper, so very conservative. Dont really care about their bees on a small scale in the hiv. Yes, they do everything there. But beyond that, ensuring theres less spring that Agricultural Policy makes changes that agriculture itself becomes be friendly. Im still waiting for that to happen. Im each of the one i mean, that good cultural engineer and a professional beekeeper, im 50 years old and ive been keeping these but 35 years in confirmation being keeping means and being at one with nature by 10 for example, experiencing springs on but turned up to 11, because all the energy in spring is in the b column in an inch. And thats just very life affirming. And its great to then chase the 1st honey. I went to prison for fighting for a different Agricultural Policy, taking us back then lots of gene engineer plants were brought into the fields here. There were a 1000 headquarters of genetically modified corn. I went out onto the field and peacefully ripped out the plants was to preserve what was already there. Thats how i kept doing it until i was sentenced to 2 days in jail or a fine of 500. 00 euros per day. I didnt want to pay that, so i was taking into course of detention for 30 days because this target i had the liquid honey sent in because they could have been contaminants hidden in the solid honey, especially if i can be keeping talks with honey tastings and go for that was a big hit in prison because people stare at the walls, theyre all the time, you know. And then someone turns up whos bursting with energy and offers them honey tasting room on one of our customers. To consume recruiting and you know, this is a very young queen. She doesnt have a dot yet. Bees love variety. When the racing field is whether theres nothing left, the oldest diversity, we had them on the green, the corn flower, the corn cockroach. So corn poppy field, larkspur, its all been sprayed away as alice. Mick do splits when, because thats how society would do well to go back to that, but it doesnt matter. It has a subsidy system that gives money to farms that are already very, very large from those with more land receive more money. So if you have, lets say 2000 to hectors right, thats half a 1000000 in government money for basic agriculture. And basic agriculture means 3 crop rotation. Winter we tried calling rape feed device, nice cops. Got to the alternative to changing the Beekeepers Association from the inside would be to found a new association. It would have to stand up for bees and being committed to an agricultural landscape that seems to be it would have to get involved in Agricultural Policy. I think that kind of association could also take on the many young p keepers who are now starting out and then really get the be keeping Community Going like getting into in cash off. This really is an easy the its not the only you my easy when it hits were youngest on up in my movies and quick then when i started with my flower meadow project, i went to the local municipality and ask them for a bit of cash. Just to finance the see, i know thats one hurdle once and then of course you have to convince the farmers who have always been in charge here and tell them how to do it and say, this is how it works. And this is how were going to do it. They will of course, you 1st have to convince them to let you dig up their meadow and so flowers, theyre on the mind. Most of them slammed the door in your face and say, come on, give lock in concepts, but there are also a few who say, yeah, man, thats a good idea. Give it a try. Who do they put me in like the i thats around 80 kilos. Its really hard its im, i see so far ive been doing all these meadows on my own. So its also a bit difficult when i tell my friends on the weekend, hey, lets make a flour meadow and then they say do drill. What are you talking about . I want to party my husband as a oh, there are a few who joined me, but its still a bit difficult to get in. The i celebrate it, man. Its pure nature. Nature best. This is a flower meadow. I sewed last year, if you can see only one plan blooming here right now, theres a wild carrot and fooling, but in spring and summer there wasnt much more on that and Something Else is coming up here too. Its an experiment really will be and if its not only be friendly, flowers, honey, be flowers that bloom. I dont care because it might be a flower that a butterfly lands on or something to do. In any case theres already much more diversity then in this normal greenfield. So the idea is just to try it out and see what grows just so something in a small pot are similar and something will happen comes on sean. My name is my vision is that there will be enough flowers everywhere again, for all the insects and for the animals. And when the insects return and get the rest of nature, will automatically be better again, the spits say to some extent hosting that it was really special to really the use of rhythms of nature. Again, i missed that more and more during my years and to see how you can feel the seasons. Again, you can feel whats growing. You can observe which blossom is coming out. If you look at the pollen that bees bring in and whats the debate against the beginning, how much i just did at the very beginning, i suppose i was learning a lot about these. But over the years, ive noticed i learned a lot more about myself through the years to be in on south to find a balance, to come to the come this stuff to be radiant, especially with men, a system with my story. I want to encourage people to listen to the own hall and to see change as an opportunity to visit to believing themselves, and to know that a gap in the korea is not the end of the world. On the contrary, it is a unique opportunity to move in a new direction. Dont give him it doesnt have to be a grace adventure, like crossing the atlantic and assailing both sides.
