Noah Wilson-Rich has made it his mission to save the bees — from colony collapse disorder, loss of habitat, and disease. He’s doing this not just as a scientist, but also as an entrepreneur. But is that a good thing? And what happens when you think you know the answer to a solution, only to realize that you got it wrong? “The ‘save the bees’ movement is canceled,” he says. But what should we do in its place? Featuring Noah Wilson-Rich, and Lauren Ponisio. Produced by Felix Poon. For full credits and transcript, visit outsideinradio.org.
