I’ve seen similar posts about how pesticides and landscaping and such have killed a huge portion of the bugs. Could this be because their food source has been diminished?

Extrapolations scratches that doomsday itch really well. I hope they do more seasons.

I liked how each episode was its own story, but the stories were told in the same world where they feed into each other towards the end.
