Knowing the fact that bees can be extinct. We started looking for some data about bees in our environment. We discovered that:

• The pollination service provided by bees, are valued at 54 billion dollars a year.
• 80% of plant species that contain flowers depends on animal pollination, with bees being the main pollinators representing 73%.
• If the bees are extinct, our ecosystem will undergo radical changes and we will lose a big part of our feeding.
• Researchers say that bees are being killed because of climate change, drys, pesticides, deforestation, and forest fires.

We decided to develop an interactive app called "BeeLive" where normal people can be like a scientist giving information to our database. Every time he sees a hive or a bee, he can report us giving the location of it. With this database, we will analyze, study, compare both, and see what is changing in the location that affect the bees.

With this data, we can realize what is driving bee`s to extinction.
