    'Nature Is Under Siege': Scientists Sound Alarm About Insect Apocalypse

    Jan 12, 2021

    A collection of new scientific papers authored by 56 experts from around the world reiterates rising concerns about bug declines and urges people and governments to take urgent action to address a biodiversity crisis dubbed the "insect apocalypse."

    "The Global Decline of Insects in the Anthropocene Special Feature," which includes an introduction and 11 papers, was published Monday in Proceedings of the National Academies of Sciences alongside a related news article. "Nature is under siege," the scientists warn. "Insects are suffering from 'death by a thousand cuts.'"

    Yes, we need to start to plant more native species and to stop using insecticides. Maybe transgenic products help too.

    Ain't nobody going to be sad of a few insect species going extinct. I've wanted them all dead since I was 7 years old.

    if that were the case though we would all die, bees especially are crucial to our survival. Bugs feed fish, birds, even a lot of mammals.
    Those who want to live, let them fight, and those who do not want to fight in this world of eternal struggle do not deserve to live.

    Even if this were hard--that is how it is ! Assuredly, however, by far the harder fate is that which strikes the man who thinks he can overcome Nature, but in the last analysis only mocks her. Distress, misfortune, and diseases are her answer.

    Lamps are harmfull to insects too. Maybe changing the lamps' position (on the groubd?) and avoiding light reach green squares, gardens, etc. may help too. Fireflies are near to extinction.
