I like that term 'knowledge translation', much more acceptable than the one I usually use (which is 'cutting through the crap').<br /><br />You're right about the flower seeds too. I've just sown some nigella (love in a mist) to keep the bees busy next spring. <br /><br />Jamiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14653345793213312242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7797396120087729156.post-4871920982589008182013-04-30T13:49:14.352+10:002013-04-30T13:49:14.352+10:00What a great post Jamie!

Knowledge translation is my PhD topic (but in cerebral palsy..not bees), so I always love it when someone takes sound scientific information and translates it into information that can change behaviour. I was pleased to hear the news on the pesticide bans too. Excellent reminder for me to plant out some more flower seeds.
