You get more bang for the buck if you walk after meals,” DiPietro says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Why? For starters, walking or other physical activity will jumpstart digestion, so your meal goes down easier, says\u003ca href=\"https://gastro.uw.edu/people/faculty/damman-c\"> Dr. Chris Damman,\u003c/a> a gastroenterologist and professor at the University of Washington who studies the intersection of the microbiome and metabolic disease.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It actually has pretty important benefits for your well-being in your belly, getting things moving, so to speak, and may be also beneficial for clearing the air, if you know what I mean,” Damman says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Faster digestion may help get more fiber and other undigested nutrients to the lower part of the gut, providing a feast for the microbes that live there, Damman says. And if you’re feeding them fiber-rich foods, these microbes will, in turn, produce lots of molecules that play an important role in keeping our brains, immune systems and metabolisms healthy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Walking also plays a big role in helping to regulate blood sugar levels after eating. That’s because as food is digested, it gets broken down into different parts, including the sugar glucose, one of the body’s main sources of energy. That sugar will then flood the bloodstream. A post-meal walk can blunt that spike, he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“One of the reasons walking is beneficial is when we move our muscles — and that’s both our heart and the muscles in our legs and our arms — they become sponges for the blood glucose that our gut is absorbing into the bloodstream,” Damman says. “And so it basically just pulls all that glucose out of the blood and into the muscles, where it’s being used immediately for propelling us forward.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Normally, the body produces the hormone insulin to clear glucose out of the blood and into nearby cells. But muscle contractions through walking can also accomplish this — even without the presence of insulin.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That means less stress on your pancreas because it doesn’t have to produce as much insulin after a meal. And that’s important because “over time, high loads on the pancreas can tax it and even lead to pre-diabetes or diabetes,” Damman says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You don’t have to walk long or intensely to see these benefits.

Following Trump’s win, \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-fMfOnKUfik\">he told NBC News\u003c/a> that he isn’t looking to take vaccines off the market but rather is advocating for informed choice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If vaccines are working for somebody, I’m not going to take them away,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>What can RFK Jr. do as health secretary?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>If Kennedy is confirmed as head of health and human services, he would oversee a $1.7 trillion budget and about a dozen agencies. He would be responsible for managing pandemic preparedness and would be in charge of issues ranging from health insurance to food safety.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Experts say that any controversial changes would likely be met with litigation that could slow or derail Kennedy’s proposals. Still, there are several ways anti-vaccine sentiment in the federal government could undermine public health gains in states.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For example, school immunization mandates are issued by states, and while the federal government cannot directly change those, it could decide to withhold public health funding, such as grants sent to states to help fund vaccination efforts, said Dorit Reiss, a professor at UC Law San Francisco.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As health secretary, Kennedy would also have the power to appoint members of an advisory committee that makes recommendations on immunization practices to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Reiss added that the health secretary also has the power to expedite or limit access to new vaccines, which would become especially important in the case of another pandemic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It is the secretary of health and human services who declares a public health emergency and \u003ca href=\"https://www.fda.gov/emergency-preparedness-and-response/mcm-legal-regulatory-and-policy-framework/emergency-use-authorization\">issues emergency use authorization\u003c/a> for unapproved vaccines. When COVID-19 shots were first made available to the public in December 2020, they were allowed under this emergency designation. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration fully approved the vaccine for people 16 and older nine months later.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A secretary hostile to vaccines could block or remove the emergency use authorization. That means the vaccine manufacturer “would have to either apply for full approval at the moment or not sell the vaccine,” Reiss said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kennedy told NBC that he wouldn’t have “directly blocked” the emergency use of COVID-19 vaccines had he been secretary at the time but rather would have made sure that “we have the best science.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yet, at the height of the pandemic, Kennedy helped fuel mistrust of the coronavirus vaccine.

Also, in December of that year, a measles outbreak at Disneyland contributed to \u003ca href=\"https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8828106/\">the highest number of measles cases reported in the U.S.\u003c/a> in two decades. Most of the cases were among unvaccinated children.

So are the polio vaccine and the Hepatitis B vaccine, among others. It was this measles outbreak that led the Legislature in 2015 to remove personal belief and religious exemptions for required shots.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then, in 2019, lawmakers came back and approved a second law that allowed the state’s Department of Public Health \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfchronicle.com/politics/article/California-rejected-6-of-medical-exemptions-for-16556125.php\">to review and revoke inappropriate medical exemptions\u003c/a>.

It could also embolden the anti-vaccine movement in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/tag/richard-pan/\">Dr. Richard Pan\u003c/a>, a pediatrician who, as a state senator, authored the 2019 medical exemption law and a separate law that eliminated personal belief exemptions for childhood vaccines, said having a health secretary who casts doubt on vaccines is “a danger” and “disturbing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I imagine we’re going to see a lot more direct attacks on individual scientists, individual people. I’m anticipating that I’m probably gonna be hoisted somewhere by those guys as well. I don’t think RFK Jr. has forgotten about me yet,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pan said he met Kennedy twice when Kennedy traveled to Sacramento to oppose his bills.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Carrying those laws made Pan the subject of harassment and attacks, and at one point, an \u003ca href=\"https://www.sacbee.com/news/politics-government/capitol-alert/article234231737.html\">anti-vaccine activist shoved him\u003c/a> while Pan was walking in a Sacramento street. At protests, anti-vaccine activists plastered Pan’s face on posters with the word “LIAR” in red letters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, people who rallied against his vaccine bills are celebrating Kennedy’s potential spot in Trump’s cabinet and calling for “justice” via social media posts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In one of their last quarrels, Pan publicly called for Kennedy to be banned from social media platforms when Kennedy promoted COVID-19 disinformation. In response, Kennedy \u003ca href=\"https://www.sacbee.com/news/politics-government/capitol-alert/article249557493.html\">told the Sacramento Bee\u003c/a> that Pan’s request for censorship was anti-American.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>More recently, Kennedy has taken a more measured approach when responding to questions about vaccines. Following Trump’s win, \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-fMfOnKUfik\">he told NBC News\u003c/a> that he isn’t looking to take vaccines off the market but rather is advocating for informed choice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If vaccines are working for somebody, I’m not going to take them away,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>What can RFK Jr. do as health secretary?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>If Kennedy is confirmed as head of health and human services, he would oversee a $1.7 trillion budget and about a dozen agencies. He would be responsible for managing pandemic preparedness and would be in charge of issues ranging from health insurance to food safety.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Experts say that any controversial changes would likely be met with litigation that could slow or derail Kennedy’s proposals. Still, there are several ways anti-vaccine sentiment in the federal government could undermine public health gains in states.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For example, school immunization mandates are issued by states, and while the federal government cannot directly change those, it could decide to withhold public health funding, such as grants sent to states to help fund vaccination efforts, said Dorit Reiss, a professor at UC Law San Francisco.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As health secretary, Kennedy would also have the power to appoint members of an advisory committee that makes recommendations on immunization practices to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Reiss added that the health secretary also has the power to expedite or limit access to new vaccines, which would become especially important in the case of another pandemic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It is the secretary of health and human services who declares a public health emergency and \u003ca href=\"https://www.fda.gov/emergency-preparedness-and-response/mcm-legal-regulatory-and-policy-framework/emergency-use-authorization\">issues emergency use authorization\u003c/a> for unapproved vaccines. When COVID-19 shots were first made available to the public in December 2020, they were allowed under this emergency designation. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration fully approved the vaccine for people 16 and older nine months later.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A secretary hostile to vaccines could block or remove the emergency use authorization. That means the vaccine manufacturer “would have to either apply for full approval at the moment or not sell the vaccine,” Reiss said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kennedy told NBC that he wouldn’t have “directly blocked” the emergency use of COVID-19 vaccines had he been secretary at the time but rather would have made sure that “we have the best science.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yet, at the height of the pandemic, Kennedy helped fuel mistrust of the coronavirus vaccine. In 2021, \u003ca href=\"https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2021/dec/10/robert-f-kennedy-jr/no-covid-19-vaccine-not-deadliest-vaccine-ever-mad/\">he called it the “deadliest vaccine ever made”\u003c/a> in opposition to a Louisiana proposal that would have required school children to be vaccinated against the virus.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>California vaccine mandates\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>In 2010, the California Legislature passed \u003ca href=\"https://www.cde.ca.gov/ls/he/hn/pertussis.asp\">a law that added a booster of the pertussis vaccine\u003c/a>, which protects against whooping cough, to the immunization schedule for teens to attend school. Catherine Flores Martin, the executive director of California Immunization Coalition, a nonprofit that advocates for vaccines, remembers when lawmakers were considering this bill, roughly about 18 people or so showed up in opposition, she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Fast-forward to 2015 and 2019, opposition to vaccine legislation evolved into mass protests of hundreds of people. “It’s gotten wild,” Flores Martin said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The vast majority of parents still vaccinate their children,” she said. “We hear a lot about hesitancy, but hesitancy doesn’t convert into not vaccinating.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12015843\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1200px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12015843\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/11/112224-Richard-Pan-RC-AP-01-CM.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/11/112224-Richard-Pan-RC-AP-01-CM.jpg 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/11/112224-Richard-Pan-RC-AP-01-CM-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/11/112224-Richard-Pan-RC-AP-01-CM-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/11/112224-Richard-Pan-RC-AP-01-CM-160x107.jpg 160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Dr. Richard Pan, former state senator, speaks in a news conference after visiting a Kaiser Permanente warehouse in Downey on Saturday, March 18, 2023.

That year, whooping cough infections peaked, \u003ca href=\"https://www.cdph.ca.gov/Programs/CID/DCDC/pages/immunization/pertussis.aspx\">with more than 11,000 cases reported in the state\u003c/a>, the most ever. Also, in December of that year, a measles outbreak at Disneyland contributed to \u003ca href=\"https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8828106/\">the highest number of measles cases reported in the U.S.\u003c/a> in two decades. Most of the cases were among unvaccinated children. The outbreak resulted in hospitalizations, but no deaths were reported.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In California, the vaccine that protects against measles, mumps and rubella is \u003ca href=\"https://www.cdph.ca.gov/Programs/CID/DCDC/CDPH%20Document%20Library/Immunization/IMM-231.pdf\">among the required doses for kids (PDF)\u003c/a> to attend school. So are the polio vaccine and the Hepatitis B vaccine, among others. It was this measles outbreak that led the Legislature in 2015 to remove personal belief and religious exemptions for required shots.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then, in 2019, lawmakers came back and approved a second law that allowed the state’s Department of Public Health \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfchronicle.com/politics/article/California-rejected-6-of-medical-exemptions-for-16556125.php\">to review and revoke inappropriate medical exemptions\u003c/a>. Medical exemptions have to be made by a physician and are reserved for small groups of people, such as those who are allergic to vaccine ingredients.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Following the 2019 law, ​​the rate of kindergarteners with medical exemptions \u003ca href=\"https://www.cdph.ca.gov/Programs/CID/DCDC/CDPH%20Document%20Library/Immunization/2021-22KindergartenSummaryReport.pdf\">decreased to the lowest levels since 2015–16 (PDF)\u003c/a>, according to the state’s public health department. However, research shows that because of disruption in routine doctor visits during the pandemic, the number of \u003ca href=\"https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/fullarticle/2810396\">kindergarteners who were not up to date\u003c/a> on their immunizations ticked up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Health advocates and experts say that it is now more important than ever to instill confidence in vaccines and proven public health measures.

Prevailing winds give ARs their distinctive shape, and probably helped give rise to their comparisons to a fire hose, pointed at California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When ARs are blown over land, the giant streams of moisture they contain cool and condense, causing heavy snow or downpours, depending on the elevation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The term “\u003ca href=\"https://oceanservice.noaa.gov/facts/pineapple-express.html\">Pineapple Express\u003c/a>” (not \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BWZt4v6b1hI\">this \u003cem>Pineapple Express\u003c/em>\u003c/a>) refers to ARs that form in tropical regions of the Pacific, often around Hawaii.

IVT takes into account both the amount of water vapor in the system and the wind that moves it around, making it flow like a, well, giant river in the atmosphere.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For a storm to be classified as an AR, it must reach an IVT threshold of 250 units.

Prevailing winds give ARs their distinctive shape, and probably helped give rise to their comparisons to a fire hose, pointed at California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When ARs are blown over land, the giant streams of moisture they contain cool and condense, causing heavy snow or downpours, depending on the elevation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The term “\u003ca href=\"https://oceanservice.noaa.gov/facts/pineapple-express.html\">Pineapple Express\u003c/a>” (not \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BWZt4v6b1hI\">this \u003cem>Pineapple Express\u003c/em>\u003c/a>) refers to ARs that form in tropical regions of the Pacific, often around Hawaii. These can pound the west coast of North America from California to Canada with intense storms.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>But what makes ARs different from other storms?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Atmospheric rivers are categorized by a unit of measurement called Integrated Water Vapor Transport (IVT). IVT takes into account both the amount of water vapor in the system and the wind that moves it around, making it flow like a, well, giant river in the atmosphere.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For a storm to be classified as an AR, it must reach an IVT threshold of 250 units. An atmospheric river with IVT of 1,000 or more is considered “extreme.” ARs fall into five categories, from “weak” to “exceptional.” \u003ca class=\"c-link\" href=\"https://twitter.com/PaulKPIX/status/1610048056329920512/photo/1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-stringify-link=\"https://twitter.com/PaulKPIX/status/1610048056329920512/photo/1\" data-sk=\"tooltip_parent\" data-remove-tab-index=\"true\">Wednesday’s storm is expected to be a Category 3\u003c/a>, or “strong,” according to data from CW3E.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Are atmospheric rivers good or bad?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Atmospheric rivers produce up to \u003ca href=\"https://scripps.ucsd.edu/news/californias-climate-future-suggests-more-volatility-and-key-role-atmospheric-rivers\">50% of California’s precipitation annually\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"http://cw3e.ucsd.edu/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/Gershunov_et_al-2017-Geophysical_Research_Letters.pdf\">65% seasonally (PDF)\u003c/a>.

However, the report was based primarily on studies in countries such as Canada, China, India, Iran, Mexico and Pakistan and involved fluoride levels at or above 1.5 milligrams per liter, twice the recommended U.S. limit.

However, he wrote that there was enough risk to warrant investigation and that the EPA must act to further regulate it. The ruling did not specify what actions the agency should take, and the EPA is reviewing the decision.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After the ruling, the American Association of Pediatrics \u003ca href=\"https://publications.aap.org/aapnews/news/30299/AAP-ADA-stand-by-fluoride-recommendations?autologincheck=redirected\">issued a statement\u003c/a> that fluoride in drinking water is safe for children and said the policy is based on a robust foundation of evidence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Besides dental fluorosis, experts say that fluoride exposure over many years above the U.S. recommended amount can cause \u003ca href=\"https://ods.od.nih.gov/factsheets/Fluoride-HealthProfessional/#en57\">skeletal fluorosis\u003c/a>, a rare condition that causes weaker bones, stiffness and joint pain. Although the Public Health Service recommends a fluoride concentration of 0.7 milligrams per liter for community water systems, the EPA, under the Safe Drinking Water Act, sets enforceable standards for drinking water quality. Currently, to prevent skeletal fluorosis, the EPA requires that water systems not exceed 4 milligrams of fluoride per liter of water.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Malin said she and her research team are investigating a potential link between fluoride and bone fractures.

However, the report was based primarily on studies in countries such as Canada, China, India, Iran, Mexico and Pakistan and involved fluoride levels at or above 1.5 milligrams per liter, twice the recommended U.S. limit.

However, he wrote that there was enough risk to warrant investigation and that the EPA must act to further regulate it.

You knew that.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it’s not as simple as you might think.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Plants want the bees to carry the pollen away and spread it to other flowers. That’s pollination, how plants reproduce.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But bees also need to carry lots of it home – pollen is a protein-packed food for the hive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Luckily, they have the right gear.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They’re hairy, like tiny flying teddy bears. She’s covered in 3 million hairs for trapping pollen. They’re even on her eyes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here on her legs, they’re shaped into spiky brushes and flat combs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When she lands on a bloom, she really gets in there. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nibbling on the flower’s anthers detaches the pollen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Time to pack up her haul. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She cleans it off her eyes and antennae with those brushes on her front legs, like windshield wipers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here it is up close. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That leg wipes the pollen right off her eye.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then she moves the pollen from leg to leg, like a conveyor belt – front to middle to back.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The bee does this super fast, while she flies from bloom to bloom, moving the pollen into special baskets on her back legs called corbiculae.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She bends her leg, using it to squish the pollen into a ball, packing it together with a little saliva and nectar.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She can get as many as 160,000 pollen grains into each ball. She’s hauling as much as one-third of her weight.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Back at the hive, meal prep is about to start.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the pollen isn’t for making honey. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The honey, under this wax, is made from nectar. They eat it for its sugar.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bees turn pollen into something completely different: bee bread. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s their source of protein.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Step one: Find an open spot.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Step two: Deposit your goods and pack them neatly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Step three: Let the pollen “marinate” with a hint of honey.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And voilà! It’s ready.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The pantry is stocked – both for adult bees and the babies that are growing in the cells next door.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The adults pop in to drop off a special bee bread snack … a little home cooking for the hive’s future hardworking flyers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you like this video, please hit the like and subscribe buttons. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It really helps us reach more people, and we truly appreciate your support!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Next time you enjoy an ice cream cone, thank an alfalfa leafcutting bee. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These bees are so tough, they get punched in the face by flowers.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>This Bee Gets Punched by Flowers For Your Ice Cream\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>OK, this bee seems confused. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That leaf she’s gnawing on is no flower.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But this is an alfalfa leafcutting bee. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She needs hunks of leaves to build her nest.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A lot of them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All this is her lacy handiwork.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She hauls the pieces back home. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Leafcutters use them to line the inside of their nest.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In nature, she might use a nook and cranny in a log.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But here, her nest is in what’s basically a bee apartment building. A high-rise made of Styrofoam.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These markings help the bee find her way back to her personal condo. You know, like, 7B.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And furnishing it takes a while, because, see that pile? These are the pieces they dropped.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The bees are here to work in this alfalfa field in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They’re from Europe originally, but farmers here use them because they have a real knack for pollinating alfalfa flowers, which grow tiny seeds inside these curly pods.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Farmers use the seeds to plant new fields of alfalfa … which is grown to make hay … to feed these gals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So, really, your glass of milk comes courtesy of these bees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But pollinating alfalfa flowers is a lot trickier than it looks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even honeybees can’t really hack it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here’s why.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Alfalfa keeps its pollen locked away inside its flowers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To get it, the bees have to step on a spring-loaded petal called a keel petal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here’s how it works.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pop! It releases this column that has the pollen at the end.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s called “tripping” the flower.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here it is again. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The column has some force – the bee might get a good thwack in the face.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Leafcutting bees just don’t care; they can take a punch.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pop. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pop.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Honeybees don’t really like to tangle with that. They’ll usually step around gingerly, trying to sip nectar from the side without setting it off.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Leafcutting bees get coated in pollen and bring it back home to their nest so they can pack it in there to feed their growing babies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Each one is bundled in a little leaf-wrapped bassinet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Aw, there they are. The siblings all lined up together. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A new generation of the toughest little bees around.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Why would these bees be digging into the dirt? \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Well, building your nest underground is a great way to protect it from invaders. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Unless, of course, freeloading flies torpedo the nest.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>This Fly Torpedoes a Bindweed Bee’s Nest\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Life for bindweed turret bees is violent and unfair.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s spring in California, and these male bees are in an all-out brawl, desperate to mate with the female trapped at the bottom of this pile.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sometimes the fight is so intense that the female they’re going after gets crushed to death.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But if she survives … she and the winner steal away and mate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Until another male wants in. Buzz kill!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now she starts an epic dig, prepping a place to lay her eggs underground.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She tirelessly scoops earth with her mandibles, dousing it with nectar she collected earlier to soften it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The majority of the world’s bee species – 70 percent – nest in the ground. These ones chose a dirt parking lot. Some nice folks cordoned it off to protect the bees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Females work side by side. Each is “queen” of her own funky little castle.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They build turrets, but only some of them are vertical.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many are tunnel-like, with a sideways entrance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Others curve down.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You’ll see why that’s important in a bit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Once the bees are done digging, they head off on another mission. They gather pollen from one plant only: morning glories, also known as bindweeds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She rubs her shaggy legs all over that pollen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And down she goes with her haul.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pollen pants!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Inside her nest, she packs the pollen into neat balls – each one in its own chamber – and lays an egg on top.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When the egg hatches into a larva, it will live off the pollen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As she toils, freeloaders show up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They look like a bee, but their huge eyes give them away.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They’re called … wait for it … bee flies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The fly doesn’t dig or gather pollen for her young. She just hovers over a bee’s nest and … yup, she’s dropping her own eggs in there. She’ll drop 200 eggs over her lifetime.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is where those tunnels and curved turrets are useful. They make it harder for the flies to drop their eggs in from the air.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But when the fly does succeed, the fly’s egg hatches into a larva that digs tiny hooks into the bee larva.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As the bee eats the pollen and grows, the fly larva sucks it dry.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sometimes the flies are so successful, they can nearly wipe out a population of bees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But these bees don’t give up. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two or three months of mating, foraging and warding off parasites come to an end when they seal up their nests with dirt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Below ground, babies will grow.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The following spring, if the bees are lucky, a new tiny city will burst to life, full of bees persevering just as their mothers did before them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you love learning about wildlife, subscribe to our weekly newsletter. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s free!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Link in the description.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bees may be famous for their sting, but these stingless bees defend their delicious honey with barricades, bouncers and bites.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Take a look!\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Stingless Bees Guard Tasty Honey With Barricades, Bouncers and Bites\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>At the break of dawn, in Oaxaca, Mexico, bees are tearing down the barrier they built last night to cover their nest entrance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another successful night protecting their honey and babies from thieving ants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They make this lattice out of a blend of wax and a potent ant repellent. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>More on that later.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They’re not eating the waxy material – they’re stashing it to reuse tonight.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Just like the honeybees that sweeten your tea, these honeymakers live in a colony.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But they’re smaller and don’t have stingers to protect the sweet stuff.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s why they’re known as stingless bees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are more than 600 species of them in the tropics around the world, mostly in the Americas. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And they’ve been around twice as long as honeybees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>No bee stingers?

You knew that.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it’s not as simple as you might think.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Plants want the bees to carry the pollen away and spread it to other flowers. That’s pollination, how plants reproduce.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But bees also need to carry lots of it home – pollen is a protein-packed food for the hive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Luckily, they have the right gear.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They’re hairy, like tiny flying teddy bears. She’s covered in 3 million hairs for trapping pollen. They’re even on her eyes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here on her legs, they’re shaped into spiky brushes and flat combs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When she lands on a bloom, she really gets in there. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nibbling on the flower’s anthers detaches the pollen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Time to pack up her haul. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She cleans it off her eyes and antennae with those brushes on her front legs, like windshield wipers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here it is up close. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That leg wipes the pollen right off her eye.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then she moves the pollen from leg to leg, like a conveyor belt – front to middle to back.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The bee does this super fast, while she flies from bloom to bloom, moving the pollen into special baskets on her back legs called corbiculae.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She bends her leg, using it to squish the pollen into a ball, packing it together with a little saliva and nectar.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She can get as many as 160,000 pollen grains into each ball. She’s hauling as much as one-third of her weight.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Back at the hive, meal prep is about to start.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the pollen isn’t for making honey. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The honey, under this wax, is made from nectar. They eat it for its sugar.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bees turn pollen into something completely different: bee bread. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s their source of protein.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Step one: Find an open spot.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Step two: Deposit your goods and pack them neatly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Step three: Let the pollen “marinate” with a hint of honey.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And voilà!

They’ll usually step around gingerly, trying to sip nectar from the side without setting it off.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Leafcutting bees get coated in pollen and bring it back home to their nest so they can pack it in there to feed their growing babies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Each one is bundled in a little leaf-wrapped bassinet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Aw, there they are.

Buzz kill!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now she starts an epic dig, prepping a place to lay her eggs underground.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She tirelessly scoops earth with her mandibles, dousing it with nectar she collected earlier to soften it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The majority of the world’s bee species – 70 percent – nest in the ground. These ones chose a dirt parking lot. Some nice folks cordoned it off to protect the bees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Females work side by side. Each is “queen” of her own funky little castle.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They build turrets, but only some of them are vertical.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many are tunnel-like, with a sideways entrance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Others curve down.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You’ll see why that’s important in a bit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Once the bees are done digging, they head off on another mission. They gather pollen from one plant only: morning glories, also known as bindweeds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She rubs her shaggy legs all over that pollen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And down she goes with her haul.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pollen pants!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Inside her nest, she packs the pollen into neat balls – each one in its own chamber – and lays an egg on top.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When the egg hatches into a larva, it will live off the pollen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As she toils, freeloaders show up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They look like a bee, but their huge eyes give them away.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They’re called … wait for it … bee flies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The fly doesn’t dig or gather pollen for her young. She just hovers over a bee’s nest and … yup, she’s dropping her own eggs in there. She’ll drop 200 eggs over her lifetime.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is where those tunnels and curved turrets are useful. They make it harder for the flies to drop their eggs in from the air.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But when the fly does succeed, the fly’s egg hatches into a larva that digs tiny hooks into the bee larva.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As the bee eats the pollen and grows, the fly larva sucks it dry.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sometimes the flies are so successful, they can nearly wipe out a population of bees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But these bees don’t give up. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two or three months of mating, foraging and warding off parasites come to an end when they seal up their nests with dirt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Below ground, babies will grow.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The following spring, if the bees are lucky, a new tiny city will burst to life, full of bees persevering just as their mothers did before them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you love learning about wildlife, subscribe to our weekly newsletter. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s free!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Link in the description.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bees may be famous for their sting, but these stingless bees defend their delicious honey with barricades, bouncers and bites.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Take a look!\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Stingless Bees Guard Tasty Honey With Barricades, Bouncers and Bites\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>At the break of dawn, in Oaxaca, Mexico, bees are tearing down the barrier they built last night to cover their nest entrance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another successful night protecting their honey and babies from thieving ants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They make this lattice out of a blend of wax and a potent ant repellent. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>More on that later.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They’re not eating the waxy material – they’re stashing it to reuse tonight.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Just like the honeybees that sweeten your tea, these honeymakers live in a colony.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But they’re smaller and don’t have stingers to protect the sweet stuff.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s why they’re known as stingless bees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are more than 600 species of them in the tropics around the world, mostly in the Americas. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And they’ve been around twice as long as honeybees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>No bee stingers?

Its orange and black wings can be spotted in nearly every U.S. state. And yet soon, federal wildlife officials will decide whether these butterflies should be listed under the Endangered Species Act. NPR’s Nathan Rott reports.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>NATHAN ROTT, BYLINE: The monarch butterfly presents a bit of a paradox. On one hand, yeah, you can pretty much find them anywhere in the continental U.S.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>KAREN SINCLAIR: One up there?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ROTT: There’s one right there.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SINCLAIR: Oh, yeah, there is one right over there. That’s a good sign.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ROTT: Like I did while talking to Karen Sinclair, a biologist at the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service at a park in Southern California. But…\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SINCLAIR: But we’re seeing less monarch butterflies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ROTT: …There are fewer of them overall. Sinclair trains volunteers to count monarchs every year in Ventura at places like this park, where the migrating insects reliably cluster come winter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SINCLAIR: And the number of times I have had the locals walk up to us, and they go, oh, what are you doing? We’re like, oh, we’re counting monarchs. The monarchs are here. And, like, oh, my gosh. I used to see monarchs all the time when I was a kid, you know? You could see them just dripping off the trees. And I didn’t think they were here anymore, you know? I haven’t seen them like that in a long time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ROTT: There are two big populations of monarch butterflies in the U.S. The eastern population, which migrates between overwintering sites in Mexico to Canada, has dropped by more than 80% since the ’90s. For the western population, which migrates between the California coast and the Mountain West…\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SINCLAIR: Now there’s less than 5% of what there used to be.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ROTT: The decline has spurred countless conservation efforts by states, communities, tribes, wildlife groups and landowners all over the country. But, says Emma Pelton…\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>EMMA PELTON: But there’s been really good evidence that we are not scaling to the levels that we need for recovery.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ROTT: Pelton is an endangered species biologist at the Xerces Society for Invertebrate Conservation. In one of the groups, it’s been calling for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to list the monarch butterfly as threatened, not endangered.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>PELTON: Yeah. I don’t think anyone has argued for endangered. I don’t think it qualifies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ROTT: Which is an important distinction because when a plant or animal is listed as endangered, it gets the top level of federal protection. Like this species is nearly extinct. Do not touch or mess with it. If a species is listed as threatened, the protections can be a little more flexible to accommodate for the people interacting with the species, which Pelton says for the monarch is somewhat necessary.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>PELTON: We really want to see some common-sense middle ground about exempting activities that are beneficial. This is a unique animal. It’s in classrooms. It’s in homes. It’s in gardens. This is something used for education and outreach. So we don’t want that to, you know, be taken off the plate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ROTT: And she doesn’t want a potential listing to hamper existing conservation efforts. And that’s the challenge. Monarch butterfly populations are declining for three main reasons — habitat loss, the use of pesticides and climate change. So, perhaps unsurprisingly, when Brigit Rollins, a staff attorney at the National Agricultural Law Center, talks to farmers in the heartland, people who she says are working to conserve monarchs…\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>BRIGIT ROLLINS: There’s a lot of concern about how listing the monarch butterfly could impact use of pesticides.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ROTT: And how it could impact where they plow or plant. Rollins says she’s expecting the Fish and Wildlife Service to recommend listing the monarch when it makes its decision in early December. But she notes it would only be a proposed rule, subject to public comments, revisions and, soon, a new presidential administration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ROLLINS: We know that during the Trump administration, the administration was interested in rolling back a lot of environmental regulations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ROTT: Including many long-held aspects of the Endangered Species Act.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ROLLINS: So I would not be surprised to see that again.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ROTT: Still, advocates and scientists like Matt Forister, a plant and insect ecologist at the University of Nevada, Reno, are excited to see how the federal government proposes to protect an insect that lives practically everywhere because, he says, it’s necessary.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>MATT FORISTER: We all grew up with this idea that there — you know, there’s National Parks, right? And, like, they’ve got a fence around them, and that’s going to be fine. But nothing’s fine now, right? All threats are completely pervasive now, and we got to deal with that.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ROTT: We’ve got to figure out, he says, how to do conservation at a large scale.

Its orange and black wings can be spotted in nearly every U.S. state. And yet soon, federal wildlife officials will decide whether these butterflies should be listed under the Endangered Species Act. NPR’s Nathan Rott reports.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>NATHAN ROTT, BYLINE: The monarch butterfly presents a bit of a paradox. On one hand, yeah, you can pretty much find them anywhere in the continental U.S.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>KAREN SINCLAIR: One up there?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ROTT: There’s one right there.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SINCLAIR: Oh, yeah, there is one right over there. That’s a good sign.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ROTT: Like I did while talking to Karen Sinclair, a biologist at the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service at a park in Southern California. But…\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SINCLAIR: But we’re seeing less monarch butterflies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ROTT: …There are fewer of them overall. Sinclair trains volunteers to count monarchs every year in Ventura at places like this park, where the migrating insects reliably cluster come winter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SINCLAIR: And the number of times I have had the locals walk up to us, and they go, oh, what are you doing? We’re like, oh, we’re counting monarchs. The monarchs are here. And, like, oh, my gosh. I used to see monarchs all the time when I was a kid, you know? You could see them just dripping off the trees. And I didn’t think they were here anymore, you know? I haven’t seen them like that in a long time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ROTT: There are two big populations of monarch butterflies in the U.S. The eastern population, which migrates between overwintering sites in Mexico to Canada, has dropped by more than 80% since the ’90s. For the western population, which migrates between the California coast and the Mountain West…\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SINCLAIR: Now there’s less than 5% of what there used to be.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ROTT: The decline has spurred countless conservation efforts by states, communities, tribes, wildlife groups and landowners all over the country. But, says Emma Pelton…\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>EMMA PELTON: But there’s been really good evidence that we are not scaling to the levels that we need for recovery.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ROTT: Pelton is an endangered species biologist at the Xerces Society for Invertebrate Conservation. In one of the groups, it’s been calling for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to list the monarch butterfly as threatened, not endangered.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>PELTON: Yeah. I don’t think anyone has argued for endangered. I don’t think it qualifies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ROTT: Which is an important distinction because when a plant or animal is listed as endangered, it gets the top level of federal protection. Like this species is nearly extinct. Do not touch or mess with it. If a species is listed as threatened, the protections can be a little more flexible to accommodate for the people interacting with the species, which Pelton says for the monarch is somewhat necessary.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>PELTON: We really want to see some common-sense middle ground about exempting activities that are beneficial. This is a unique animal. It’s in classrooms. It’s in homes. It’s in gardens. This is something used for education and outreach. So we don’t want that to, you know, be taken off the plate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ROTT: And she doesn’t want a potential listing to hamper existing conservation efforts. And that’s the challenge. Monarch butterfly populations are declining for three main reasons — habitat loss, the use of pesticides and climate change. So, perhaps unsurprisingly, when Brigit Rollins, a staff attorney at the National Agricultural Law Center, talks to farmers in the heartland, people who she says are working to conserve monarchs…\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>BRIGIT ROLLINS: There’s a lot of concern about how listing the monarch butterfly could impact use of pesticides.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ROTT: And how it could impact where they plow or plant. Rollins says she’s expecting the Fish and Wildlife Service to recommend listing the monarch when it makes its decision in early December. But she notes it would only be a proposed rule, subject to public comments, revisions and, soon, a new presidential administration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ROLLINS: We know that during the Trump administration, the administration was interested in rolling back a lot of environmental regulations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ROTT: Including many long-held aspects of the Endangered Species Act.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ROLLINS: So I would not be surprised to see that again.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ROTT: Still, advocates and scientists like Matt Forister, a plant and insect ecologist at the University of Nevada, Reno, are excited to see how the federal government proposes to protect an insect that lives practically everywhere because, he says, it’s necessary.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>MATT FORISTER: We all grew up with this idea that there — you know, there’s National Parks, right? And, like, they’ve got a fence around them, and that’s going to be fine. But nothing’s fine now, right? All threats are completely pervasive now, and we got to deal with that.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ROTT: We’ve got to figure out, he says, how to do conservation at a large scale.
