In Paris, there are 700 hives. It's a good environment for bees because it's warmer than the countryside. And in the cities, pesticides are forbidden so they can have a longer and healthier life and the production of honey has a better quality. Moreover, we plant flowers throughout the year so bees can always produce honey. The bees have a type of filter against pollution, the pollution doesn't influence the production and the honey is still good for the human health. A study showed that the bees live better in cities than in the countryside because the mortality rate is lower.
