What if honeybees leave our planet?

I love honey. Every morning I sweeten my peanut butter sandwich with honey. I know it is not the real real honey, but still it is honey. But more than honey I like my beautiful earth. I want to hand it to next generation better than what I have been given. This little ball, tiny tinny dust in universe, is very gorgeous when you look at it even from Mars. The only place that has honeybee after all. They are so kind to us with those soft furs on their legs.
We have been losing them since late 2006. It is time to pay them back, for all mistakes we have done to them.
"Colony Collapse Disorder" does not have any meaning to them. They do not understand why we like lawn more than wild flower, and they do not know why they are dying.
We have to do something now. A strip of seasonal flowers around our yards, or some water in a container with  a few pebbles for landing on while they are drinking, even a pot behind our windows, if we have no yard, can  make a big different for the bees who have been feeding us for thousands years.
