A delivery of 120,000 VI bees has arrived at a military driving school in East Yorkshire.
The Defence School of Transport came up with the new venture in a bid to be more environmentally friendly.
Around 10,000 members of the military pass out through the driver training school each year, with the site creating pollution as a result of its work, and is keen to offset this in whatever way it can.
The bees' hive will be based in a bomb bunker at the school.

Wow BAEâs new air to surface missile looks to be coming along wellđł
Wonderful idea. Plus, free honey for the messes. Environmentally, the armed forces are very good at protecting habitats, animals, birds & others, especially in the training areas, and our areas of outstanding natural beauty.
So this is showing the armed forces in a good light. Wonderful.
It's actually really good to see the military getting involved with green initiatives, even if it only starts out small scale like this. If we want to reduce our carbon footprint and slow down and eventually stop climate change, it needs to happen at every level of our society, including the armed forces.
Keeping bees isn't a green initiative and it's less profitable than dairy farming!
@@taurox5846 perhaps "green initiative" is the wrong phrase for this particular situation, but the MOD, and the country as a whole becoming more green and moving towards net carbon-neutrality ASAP is literally undeniably a good thing.
Climate change isn't going to stop and if it did stop you should be worried lol. Also. Why should the military be getting involved in 'green initiatives'? The only thing the military should be involved in is keeping the british public safe and looking after our interests abroad.
@@yoyo-lf3ld imagine the military were to lose its reliance on oil? No more dependence on the middle east, trillions saved importing oil Etc, reducing human climate change is everyone's job.
@@JohnSmith-fs2tw What correlation do be hives have to do with that? Not everything is part of some secret agenda.
Thank your for your SERVICE GOD BLESS YOU đ

Pepper Roni Have fun with a swollen tounge
So why do they have bees they didnt say
to ofset carbon footprint, they litterally said it at the start
@@climbingbow it wont offset their carbon footprint in the slightest! Growing a meadow might but bees won't, it's a load of PR waffle.
@@climbingbow it's not to offset there carbon footprint. It's too look kl and hip.
@@taurox5846 I never said it worked I was just saying it's why they say they're doing it
