  (No) future without bees?
  They secure our food supply
  We could live in a paradise in which insects, and in particular bees, pollinate fragrant seas of flowers whose fruits we harvest. Instead, gravel areas are replacing flower gardens and agriculture is dominated by monocultures. Pesticides and climate change are doing their part to cause insects to die out – with dramatic consequences for the global ecosystem. Honey is just one of many foods that will no longer be available to us.
  A graphic novel that not only inspires reflection, but also action.
  The young German illustrator Hanna Harms visualizes the many aspects of the situation in poetic images – brutally honest. With her debut book Milk Without Honey, she has already won the Ginco Award in the category “Best Non-Fiction Comic”. SPIEGEL bestselling author Prof. Dr. Jürgen Tautz places the situation of these animals, which are so important to us, in a larger context in an afterword. He is an insect researcher, bee expert, behavioral researcher and retired professor at the Biocenter of the University of Würzburg. His books are translated into up to 20 languages.

  Particular attention was paid to environmentally friendly production and equipment: Milk Without Honey is a Cradle to Cradle product. It only contains healthy substances that can be 100% recycled. In addition, all CO2 emissions that were generated during the printing of this book were 110% offset.
