Apparently, according to the Gaia worshipers over at TIME magazine, human-caused climate change is threatening to make more bugs go extinct and cause their habitat behaviors to go haywire.
TIME reporter Simmone Shah trotted out the eco-agitprop May 20 on how “climate change means that globally summers on average could get less buggy.” Climate change, cried Shah, could mean globally that “an increasing number of insects could be at risk for extinction” and that other pests like ticks and mosquitoes could “broaden their range of habitat or timing when they emerge for the season.”
Then came the pathetic scareporn: “While you might be hoping to put away the bug spray, experts warn that the [climate] change could have harmful impacts on ecosystems, agriculture, and in some cases, health.” In other words, humanity is responsible for, er, insecticide, as TIME has notoriously blamed humanity as being the cause of the climate change that’s now affecting the bugs society is supposed to be eating!
Timon and Pumbaa from The Lion King (1994) are the most shook.

I’ve only lived in Kentucky for 14 years, but this is the first year I’m witnessing the Cicada infestation. It’s marvelous. The sound, the pretty bugs. Pretty cool.
I couldn’t sleep last night… climate change
My boss handed me a project due by 5:00…. climate change

It looks like it might rain, or not rain…. climate change

Last year was the main hatch for the two breeds but glad to hear there are “sleepy heads” waking up.
When did you start hearing them this year? You are a few weeks north of me in SW Arkansas. I will be listening thanks to your post.
Last year, I was just outside the zone. There were a few nearby, but the whir of the swarm was miles away, like the UFO engine sound of every 1950’s sci-fi movie.
Would a bat house in the backyard and some guinea hens help at all?
There was nothing last year, at least in Taylor county. It was a complete bust. Not this year. The woods are full of them, and every now and then one will make it to our porch, where the dog likes to play with them. These are black with a bright orange trim and red eyes.
We started hearing them just a few days ago. They are about 1.5 inches long, btw. Every now and then one lands on my leg or arm and I only notice it when they start nibbling on me, kinda like grasshoppers will do. It starts to hurt a little bit and I brush them off.
Oddly, we’ve never seen a “swarm”. We will occasionally see one flying out of a tree and that’s about it. But if you examine a tree closely and carefully, you can actually see a few on the leaves.
Global Warming/Climate Change are Fake funded by USAID
More food for the dinner able! 😠😠🤤
Where are the bugs at night? I drive at night with lights on and no bugs hit my windshield
