On Principe, there are now efforts to stop people from burning the nests of bees to get honey.
On Principe, people traditionally extract honey by:
- Burning the nests of bees
- Waiting for the bees to die and then taking the honey
Recently, thanks to information campaigns and education, people on the island have started to realize that this practice is very destructive to the environment because bees are very important for pollination.
They have now began to go into beekeeping which is more sustainable than simply burning nests.
We can therefore conclude that people in Principe are moving on from the very controversial practice of burning bees to get honey.
