Toxic smoke from a chemical fire in Georgia is killing local bees.
Backyard beekeepers are struggling to keep their bees alive and feel devastated by the BioLab fire’s long-term impacts.
What’s happening?
TikToker AtlBeeBae (@deniselasonde) shared that she has a single beehive on her property and lives about 14 miles from the BioLab fire.
@deniselasonde I live in Decatur and everyday since the fire started our mornings have been blanketed by the toxic smoke from the #biolabfire . I have watched my hive go from strong and busy prepping for winter, to just a few sickly members. #toxicsmoke #metroatlanta #beekeeping #beekeepingwhileblack #gardening #permaculture #gardeningwhileblack @Valarmordollars ♬ origineel geluid – no sound…
