Can humans survive without bees?

The importance of bees in the food chain cannot be underestimated. They are responsible for pollinating over one-third of the world's crops, including fruits, vegetables, nuts, and seeds. This means that without bees, many crops would struggle to grow and produce food. Additionally, many animals rely on these crops as a food source, meaning that the loss of bees could have a knock-on effect on the food chain as a whole. While it is possible that humans could survive without bees, it would require a significant restructuring of the agricultural sector, and would likely result in significant shortages of many foods.
