About this listen
From ants scurrying under leaf litter to bees able to fly higher than Mount Kilimanjaro, insects are everywhere. Three out of every four of our planet’s known animal species are insects.
In The Insect Crisis, acclaimed journalist Oliver Milman dives into the torrent of recent evidence that suggests this kaleidoscopic group of creatures is suffering the greatest existential crisis in its remarkable 400-million-year history. What is causing the collapse of the insect world?
Why does this alarming decline pose such a threat to us?
And what can be done to stem the loss of the miniature empires that hold aloft life as we know it?

Great, Except the Narrator
This book was great. Full of interesting information and easy to listen to. The only downfall was the narrator accents. Every nationality except the British coped a cartoonish accent when quoted. Very weird for a non fiction book.

7 hours too long
Interesting and very valid point but it could’ve been delivered in a much more efficient way.
