Description

American biologist E. O. Wilson once said: “If all mankind were to disappear, the world would regenerate back to the rich state of equilibrium that existed 10,000 years ago. If insects were to vanish, the environment would collapse into chaos.” As the global climate continues to warm due to human actions, Wilson’s words are proving prescient. But the impact of climate change on insects is wide ranging. In some instances, warmer temperatures have decimated populations of creepy-crawlies. But that’s not the whole story. Today’s Daily Dose shows you how, when it comes to insects and the warming of the planet, there will be both winners and losers — only, the victors often appear to be the bugs we’d rather be rid of.
