A world without insects would be catastrophic for humanity, likely leading to widespread famine, the collapse of ecosystems, and potentially the end of human civilization within months. Insects are essential for pollinating over 75% of our food crops, decomposing waste, and forming the base of the food chain for birds and fish
If all insects and bugs disappeared, Earth’s ecosystems would collapse, resulting in widespread famine, massive decay accumulation, and the eventual extinction of humanity. While insect-borne diseases would vanish, the loss of pollination, decomposition, and food web support would cause an ecological catastrophe far outweighing any short-term benefits
