India study: Cell towers, phones disrupt bees' navigation

A new study from New Delhi reports that electromagnetic waves from cell phones and cell towers are a threat to honeybees.

Dr. Sainuddin Pattazhy, who conducted the study, found that:

...when a cell phone was kept near a beehive, the worker bees were unable to return, leaving the hives with only the queens and eggs and resulting in the collapse of the colony within ten days.
