Morgan Freeman is one of those famous people that is adored by both the young
and the old. He is an actor, filmmaker, as well as director and he, is known
for a lot of different roles that he played during his long Hollywood career,
so it is difficult to keep track, but his newest role may prove to be his most
important one.
Now,
he is celebrated for his participation in helping, as well as investing to
revive the bee population. According to statistics, one in three bites of food
that you put into your mouth today is the result of the hard-working, yet
humble honeybee. The sad thing is that bees are dying off at a rather alarming
rate.
People
around the world have done what they can, from planting flowers which bees like
to visit, petitioning their governments to stop the use of pesticides which
kill bees, and even keeping bees themselves. Morgan Freeman is no different.
His concern about the bees led him to convert his 124-acre ranch in Mississippi
into a sanctuary for wild bees with bee-friendly plants such as fruit trees and
clover, magnolia trees and lavender, all spanning over many acres.
