Articles on locusts are published more often now than months ago when the swarms started. A recent one was published May 13, 2020, entitled Scientists create tool to forecast where East Africa’s devastating locusts will land next. [2]
Giant hornets have arrived in the US. Here is an article that reported on it: ‘Murder Hornets’ in the U.S.: The Rush to Stop the Asian Giant Hornet. [3] Here is another: "Murder hornets" have now entered the U.S. — and they could decimate the honeybee population. [4]
Rabbits In The U.S. Are Facing A Deadly New Virus Outbreak Of Their Own is the title of the article on the Type 2 (RHDV2) rabbit virus [2] . Quoted below are from the article cited [5]:
The virus could significantly affect wild rabbit populations, especially species already imperiled, such as the endangered riparian brush rabbit or the pygmy rabbit, according to CDFW Senior Wildlife Veterinarian Dr. Deana Clifford.
“Unfortunately, we may also see impacts to species that depend on rabbits for food, as rabbits are a common prey species for many predators,” Clifford noted.
As Dr. Clifford had noted, when one of nature's food chain is broken, it is a concern, impacting other species especially when robots cannot be used as a substitute, as in solar-powered robotic bees, see NewBees on YouTube [6].
As smart as man can be, man cannot be God but like Eve thinks he can be like God. Man can only make a robotic bee that can pollinate but it cannot make honey nor can it make natural wax. When bees die, they decompose over time. When robotic bees malfunction, they become trash. The world needs millions and millions of robotic bees to pollinate and when they need to be replaced, there will be tons and tons more trash as if there is not enough of it already.
Man needs to reflect on his existence on earth and on his relationship with Mother Nature. This reflection is secondary. What comes first is his desire to marry, to raise his family without ever giving much thought of what kind of world he will leave behind for his descendants born generations after his death, and the kind of sufferings they could encounter. He sees the present, and maybe a generation or two thereafter, but not much farther beyond that. It is not that he cannot see the future of this world clearly, it is because his greed and selfish ambitions have blinded him.
Man made in God's image knows how to do God's will on earth as it is in Heaven, borrowing words from the Our Father (Pater Noster) prayer [7], yet he stubbornly refuses to and continues to welcome and embrace all of Satan's temptations.
