As reported by BBC, the day the EU decided to ban (some) neonicotinoid pesticides to protect bees, it seemed like a victory for green campaigners. The ban was not only promising for the general protection of bees and the environment, but it was a great relief for beekeepers who had suffered the devastating effects of these pesticides. However, not all EU Member States are abiding by the ban. In fact, there is an alarming situation in which some nations merely dismiss EU regulation.
