    A Conversation between Two Entomologists​

    Have you noticed there haven’t been any insects lately?

    Yes.

    I wonder why?

    Could it be it’s been in the 20s and 30s for the last 3 months?

    I think it’s something else. Don’t you feel a metaphorical chill in the air?
    I’m afraid we’re seeing the beginning of an anti-biodiversity vortex forming.


    Oh god. Our worst fear.

    Couldn’t be anything else. There’s nothing we can do.

    Guess it’s time to retire. See you at the bar in an hour?
