"For nearly 30 years, a group of entomologists has been collecting and
counting bugs from German nature reserves. Their shock findings threaten
to change farming practices across Europe."

Punchline: "The threat is perhaps another symptom of what's creating
climate change: humanity's ever-increasing exploitation of the
environment.  As with climate change, the cost of changing our ways
could be enormous, but the cost of doing nothing could be greater still."
