Letting Amerikkkans have any power even in their own country should be tried at the Hague for political malpractice.
Maybe the giant drop in insect biomass we were warned about 6 years ago is having consequences? Like there’s a system of relationships connecting different species together? A sort of chain or web maybe? Nah, that’s silly
that + bird flu is quite the nightmare
60 years ago, Rachel Carson wrote Silent Spring and they banned DDT and freaking Nixon of all people established the EPA. And now it’s “let 'er rip lol”
You guys think turning this country into broad swaths of suburbs and 10 lane interstates was bad or something?
Poor birdies
I get this is also bad news for us but we’re hardly the victims here.
3 billion is catastrophic. Jfc
Memes aside, how many birds were killed during the 4 Pests Campaign? Because that’s what caused all the starvation during the Great Leap Forward when there weren’t birds to eat insects which caused huge swarms of locusts to eat all the crops.
Something similar could happen here in the US, except it will be the collapse of ecosystems due to not enough pollinators, rather than biblical plagues destroying all the grain.
The American species of locust was effectively driven to extinction about 100 years ago due to a combination of aggressive campaigns to exterminate them and their breeding grounds and changes in farming practices and types of crop cultivation.
It’s extinctions all the way down, baby!
The concern about bird populations though is that they’re pollinators (just like honeybees). A lot of plants rely on birds for pollination. No birds = no plants = herbivores starve and die = carnivores starve and die = total ecosystem collapse. This would rapidly accelerate climate change and desertification.
Corn is wind pollinated tho so the HFCS will keep flowin’
I just heard of hundreds of millions of sparrows. Not sure about other species. If things collapse like that in the US…
Further confirmation that JDPON Don is a Maoist
:sparrows: /s
Dunno why they bother putting out these statements, americans (who are killing the birds) do not care.
Its so I personally can watch as the entire earth dies.
They’re too focused on vanity to ever change. They need to have their lawns mowed, pesky trees removed, and no sign of wildlife for the perfect pristine life. You can tell them all the negatives of what they’re doing and they’ll talk about property values while contributing to the insect mass extinction through pesticides.
pesky trees removed
What is it about the suburbanite brain that makes them want to cut down all the trees? This is something I’ve never understood.
The only time they comment on the lack of wildlife is when they notice they don’t have to clear as many bugs off their windscreen as they used to. HOAs in North America are terrorist organisations
Maybe they figured out ecofascism already
By refusing to redistribute wealth to the plebs of honkey countrys, they throttle their birth rate to a 1.5 ish tfr and constrain CO2 risekilling the planet
