Urban Bee Keeping makes for better honey?

You might have read that the bee population has been declining throughout the world.(Click to watch another video on bee population decline) This is not so good for the environment, because bees help pollinate flowers and help in the growth of plants, trees and crops. But due to increasing urbanization (more cities, less rural areas) and increasing use of pesticides in farming, the bees have been suffering. However, many smart people are now thinking of innovative ways to solve this problem. One of them thought- why not make bees survive and make honey in urban areas? What if we could make nest for bees on rooftops? They could get new homes, the environment would benefit and humans could get various products that honeybees make- like honey and wax, used for making candles and many other things.
