Artificial Pollinator Prepares for a World Without Bees
Jun-30-11
The design concept London Without Bees is intended for use in the event of a mass bee extinction, able to eject pollen filled balloons to fertilize the city gardens of London.

Designed by Ben Kirk, the device will eject its pollen into the air, where it will then travel on the wind to different, strategically located recycling centers. Special funnels located at the centers would be able to send the pollen to city gardens around London.

A variation of the pollinator device, consisting of a smaller pack and using passive wind, could also be used in home gardens.

1. What will be the status of viability of pollen grains?
2. How could be controlled the direction of pollen grains in response to wind?
