Flowers are loosing their smell so bees loose their way

Apparently pollution means that the scent of flowers doesn't travel as far as it used to - but surely there is less pollution than there used to be with the reduction of coal burning? or is it all from cars now?

Anyhow, apparently this is affecting bee numbers. See http://www.livescience.com/environment/080411-pollution-flowers.html
