Nope. I am saying that people are using the NYT article to suggest a conspiracy or, in your case, to chip away at the credibility of conservationists who identify legitimate ecological concerns.
The NYT article does not suggest that the bee problems causing alarm in 2006 were anything other than genuine. Nor does it suggest that the conservationists were wrong in sounding the alarm. What is described is that the response of increasing the number of hives may have gone too far in some areas. Therefore, conservationists are sounding alarm in those areas to stop adding hives and to focus instead on landscaping to support wild bee populations. I have no problem with that.
Conservationists are trying to save the planet. We should support them rather than spread baseless conspiracy innuendos.
