Colony collapse is no longer an issue, but nice article from 2014. It vanished as quickly as it appeared. The big challenges facing honeybees right now, in descending order: varroa mite, lack of good forage, trouble safely wintering. Varroa mite's pretty scary though, it can cause major die-offs.

What if we developed some kind of virus that specifically attacked the varroa mites? Would africanizing more bees help at all?
