Conversely if we wanted to rebound insect populations it would take very little time and effort to do so. They have high birth rates and fast generation times.

People don’t care. I’ve talked about this before and the responses are denial or dismissal. “Habitat destruction is the reason they’re going extinct. I don’t even use pesticides for my lawn when I kill them!” “There’s always doomsayers out there.”

Ya I was really going to town with my fly swatter last weekend :/
