【知識分享】 Why Europe's Insecticide Ban Is Big News for Bees

Banning neonicotinoids in the European Union

Neonicotinoids (新烟碱类杀虫剂) 由德國 Bayer 化工廠生產, 係近乎
Nicotine (尼古丁) 的新型殺蟲劑, 在 2005 年, EU 核准上市後, 全世界
大量使用, 已成為全世界銷售量最大的殺虫劑; 但此種殺蟲劑開始使用後,
全球各地的蜜蜂開始大量死亡的現象, 因蜜蜂乃是大自然界植物授粉
https://bit.ly/2raoGu8 最重要載具, 引起全世界糖食生產及農業部門嚴重
關切, 從七, 八年前陸續進行 1,500項研究計畫, 罪魁禍首陸續浮現, 幸運地
由一位台大呂姓公衛助理教授直指 Neonicotinoids 為造禍者 (見後);
現歐盟正式宣佈停用此類殺蟲劑; 美國尚未跟進.

【講些正經的!】 整群蜜蜂集体死亡, 找出原凶

2006 年​, 世界各地養蜂場​, 發現畜養的蜂群​, 成群集体突然
無故大批死亡​​​, <Colony ​C​ollapse ​Disorder​ (CCD)>, 一時成為
世界大新聞​; 因蜜蜂是人類食物鏈中不可或缺的​角色​,
食物中的水果​, 蔬菜​, 主食​, 如稻米雜糧​, 必須依靠蜜蜂
​來傳播花粉​​​​​, 少了這一環​, 那人類就幾乎無食物可吃了​;
於是​, 全世具各政府動用科學家​, 欲及早找出病灶​, 並找到治病
藥單​​​​​; 到了​ 2008 -9 年​, 初步發現是寄生​​在蜜蜂體內的一種
牙虫​在​作祟​;​​但仍不算是結論​, 因若干關鍵問題無法解答​; 到了
​2014 年​, 一位來自臺灣​姓​​呂​​​ (Alex Sheng-cheng Lu)在哈佛
大學公共衛生學院​擔任助理教授​, 在​ 'Nature' 發表了一篇研究
成果報告​​​, 其結論是認定一種用在​玉米​基改作物​上的一種​殺蟲劑
(​​​​菸鹹​ ​Neonicotinoid insecticides​)​是造成蜂群集體暴斃的直接
主因; 一時之間​, 除少數種子供應商​ Monsanto, 及那殺蟲劑
製造廠​​ Bayer, DuPont 外​, 所有的科學家依照呂​教授的試驗
方法​​, 重覆再自行作試驗​, 一年後​, 都能接受呂教授的推論​; ​​​

呂教授​後在台大公衛院指導類似研究​, 在一紀錄片中​, 看到幾項
研究計劃​​​, 其中一項​, 是驗証用不同濃度含菸鹹殺蟲劑​的糖蜜​,
罝放到蜂巢附近​, 觀察到​採到糖蜜的中毒蜜蜂​, 內生的​導航系統
錯亂​,而無法找到回​蜂​巢​​​​​​​的本能​, 最後在野外死亡​, 因實驗前​,
已在蜜峰​身上裝了發波晶片​,所以很容易追蹤到死亡地點​;
檢回蜂屍​, 回實驗室解剖​,發現腸道均有中毒現象​, 如此​, 証實
了呂教授的假設​; ​​​​​​​​​​​

另一記錄片中,訪問了​一位​加拿大的農民​, ​他以空灑​方式​, 將浸了
菸鹹殺蟲液的基改黃豆​播種​​, 不到三天​, 發現農田附近蜂農的​
三千八百萬​​​​​蜜蜂全數死亡​; 後來​, 發玩土壤中的菸鹹​值超標
數百倍​;​​​​

呂教授在作這一系列實驗時, 早期的​初步結果​, ​​陸​續在國際
學術期刊上​, 瑞士立即​作出反應​, 禁止使用這類殺蟲劑​, 而
法國在兩年前​, 未知會歐盟​, 也禁用茄鹹殺蟲劑​; 但美國政府
​的態度​, ​​卻迥異其趣​, 不但農業部發表不痛不癢​的立場​,
而環保署​更是不肯表態​, 怯於​ Monsanto, Dupont, Bayer
三大公司的淫威​; 但呂​教​授​​​​​​​​​​​​​​的這篇的研究報告​, 各選區的農民
對他們的​聯邦議員​施壓​, 原本已在今年初排定是否要禁​用的
議程​, 不知何故​, 已延後​;

​​​​​​整個過程​, 絕對是公共政策實務課程的上好教材​; 再拖下去​,
沒了蜜蜂​, 人類也該滅絕了​ (非有感而發​,而是看到一紀錄片​,
7 Signs Of The Apocalypse ​(​https://goo.gl/YtKv9l);
引用聖經上​ '啓示錄​' (Revelation) ​​​​​​​​​, 上天已顯​示​末日紀的
跡象​ (Signs), 除氣侯變遷​, 極端氣候​, 颶風暴雨​, 大掩水​,
風狗浪​ (Tsunami), 瘟疫​ (​​​​​​​​​禽流感​, H5N1, Ebola, Zika​),
還有就是蜜蜂的全體消失.......

這全部事件, 正是人類醜陋黑暗面的集大成​, 商人為貪利​,
無所不用其極, 有權無責的官員​, 態度陰晦​, 最低層的農民
無辜也無奈​; ​老子曰: “天地不仁,以萬物爲芻狗;聖人
不仁,以百姓爲芻狗。」​; 那七殺碑​說得直白​ '​
『天生萬物與人,人無一物與天,殺殺殺殺殺殺殺』

這每天我們都在​搞自殘​, 互​打 ​'七傷拳​', 殺敵一​千​,
自傷八百', 這值嗎​?
