    Oh Fuck off with the Einstein quote. It's not even accurate. Einstein was actually quoted as saying in the 1941 Canadian Bee Journal:

    “Remove the bee from the earth and at the same stroke you remove at least one hundred thousand plants that will not survive.”

    This quote:
    "If the bee disappeared off the face of the earth, man would only have four years left to live"

    is unattributed and bunk.

    Food would suck in variety, have shortages and cost a lot more, but mankind would survive. BTW what would we miss:

    apples, avocados, bok choy, broccoli, broccoli rabe, cantaloupe, carrots, cauliflower, celery, cucumbers, eggplant, green onions, honeydew, kale, leeks, lemons, limes, mangos, mustard greens, onions, summer squash and zucchini...
