Insects: food for the future?
At the 2024 World Economic Forum insects are discussed as an important food ingredient, because they believe obviously that there are enough insects to nourish the world population.
Let us assume this is a good idea, since eating meat is not sustainable: the millions of farm animals create in total too much methane, and methane affects the climate change. However, if this becomes a sincere wish, there will be a need for insect farms, instead of cow-, pig and chicken farms, because insects are worldwide in decline. It is not possible to catch them in the garden. There are hardly insects left.
Why?
Insect decline
The insect decline started when pesticides and insecticides were introduced and used in agriculture, and though warned for this, EU still allows Roundup to be sold and used. Farmers use it. Money counts. But money is not sustainable without knowing how to invest it in what.
There are biological “pesticides”. Like Oreganum Onites L., a herb.
It is not popular yet. More awareness is needed.
Celphone-use
The explosively growing use of mobile phones world wide since 2010, and the therefore increasing number of cell towers, even more when internet became available and the old fashioned SMS and call types were replaced by cellphones, and 2G turned into 3G, 4G and now already 5G, the density of wireless radiation has become so strong, that insects, with their utterly sensitive wings and antennas are under severe attack, constantly. Watch: The irradiation by celltowers and cellphones and the responsibility of the mobile user (video 5G, Birds, Bees and Humanity)
Insects can fly away from irradiated places, but where to fly finally when celltowers pop up even in wilderness, because a cellphone user has the right to have a good internet connection…., also in remote wilderness.
Finally they die.
Note: I did not realize that this post will also be sent to cellphone users, till I published the post and Substack showed me the shape of a cellphone. Which means that this post contributes to insect decline. My sincere request is: please, read this post on a cabled (ethernet connected) laptop, and keep your cellphone in fly mode. Use the cellphone only for emergency calls, or SMS. A lot can be shared via email, without costs.
Maybe this video helps to make the step.

Note: Daniel Favre explains why, despite the thousands of studies on this subject, that prove the effect on insects, bees, plants, etc., these studies must contain also the political part of the problem, shortly, with what the governmental / industrial safety guidelines decision groups falsely state about the subject. ICNIRP is the most difficult and at the same time the most essential group because of its global power, that has to be attacked for its thermal-effects-only dogma and therefore false conclusions. Biological effects are created already far below the ICNIRP levels. More details here.
What exactly ARE insects? How do they look?
The most of the people will not like insects. These are too often annoying to humans, often also to animals. Especially flies and mosquitos.
Insects however are part of the biological diversity, and not one insect is meaningless, even when the human mind does not see or understand the meaning of them. The human mind cannot fathom All Existence and the details of it. We, AND the insects, next to all other living creatures, are part of All Existence and need each other.
How do they look like?
The easiest and most interesting way to start studying insects is to start to watch the following artwork, painted by the Dutch Gurt Swanenberg, and published on Pinterest. A photo gallery with insects: here
The impact of insect decline on all life forms
Insects are part of the food chain of all living creatures. A decline in insects has caused a decline in birds: birds eat insects, also bats eat insects. Which animals eat birds? Mammals eat birds, like for instance the pine marten. Also cats eat birds. Bears. Insects play also a role in the pollination of fruits, herbs and vegetables. Without pollination nothing will grow.
