- AlexandrB 6y agoThe GP is referencing the Holocaust since the story is about Germany. Though I don't know what that has to do with this article or the comment he is replying to.
- hirundo 6y ago> What are the costs to people by mandating dimming the light? It makes it harder to see at night.
- saagarjha 6y agoThat’s not really “more than”, is it? You need to weigh the size of the benefit with the amount of convenience.
- Dahoon 6y agoHow mature.
- masswerk 6y agoFun fact: they started to care (only), because it's going to affect people. The drop in insect populations has become concerning. Without them, no crops, no fruits, no agriculture, which isn't that great a prospect for humans.
- LargoLasskhyfv 6y agoWe can have pollination by swarms of meshed microdrones.
- pvaldes 6y ago> Some European countries, only very recently cared more about insects than people Is not a "us or them" dichotomy. The only possible alternatives are insects-win/humans-win or insects-lose/humans-lose. We can't have agriculture without insects.
