# Pollination Suits The "Human Bee Pollinator" Puts a Spin on Climate Change By Michael Hines | Published 2010-02-14 | Eco Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/human-bee-pollinator References: [fashioningtech](http://www.fashioningtech.com/profiles/blogs/guerilla-intervention-human) & [dkds.ciid.dk](http://dkds.ciid.dk/idp09/students/laura-boffi/) I don’t know much about [global warming](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/irreversible-scale), but I’ll do anything to avoid having to wear this [human bee pollinator suit](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vollebak-neo-suit). This thing looks ridiculous but has a powerful message: If we continue to abuse the Earth, this is what it could come to. The suit was designed by Laura Boffi and Jacek Barcikowski to draw attention to [declining bee populations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shannan-beehive-observation-cabin). The suit itself looks silly, but it got my attention so I guess it’s doing a good job.
