Yet the typical American faces a government where they are powerless to do anything about it:
“The loss of insects is an apocalypse worth worrying about
A world without bugs is a world we don’t want to live in.”
*
“Climate Change Could Move 65% Of Insect Population Towards Extinction
Cold-blooded insects are especially vulnerable to temperature changes because they lack the ability to control their body temperature.”
*
“The world could be on the brink of a mass extinction of insects
Some areas could see half their populations wiped out due to climate change and habitat loss”
*
“Are insects doomed? New study shows added threat of climate change”
*
American politicians are guilty of gross negligence in their duty of custodianship of the country:
“Deforestation, pesticides, and climate change: Insects could go extinct”
*
“Killed in cold blood: Amphibians and reptiles are bearing the brunt of crop intensification
Loss of species due to rising farm productivity is inevitable, says research”
*
“Nearly two-thirds of coral reef sharks and rays face extinction”
*
We can not ignore the conditions the fact that humans thrive in the conditions in which we evolved and our most basic physiology was cast. Unhealthy earth = unhealthy humans.
Nature is our human health infrastructure but it is being annihilated for profit
“Urban green spaces linked to less prescription drug use”
