"Climate change could wipe out butterfly populations" I say good. I am tired of the little buggers flapping their wings over there in China and causing all these Hurricanes and storms.
Enough is enough!

Then bunnies and butterflies had better ‘nut-up’ and grow a pair if they wanna live.

You are doing a public service..... I know a large orchard that wants and encourages weeds in between the fruit trees. The flowering weeds attract the pollinators, bees and such, the fruit trees need

Its all due to a recent increase in unicorn farts. Should you encounter any unicorns, destroy them on sight.

Global warming is expected to result in localized extinctions of up to one-third of all butterfly species.When it actually happened as expected I'd burn all my cash in tribute to the alarmist...being right about global warming for the first time
I think I'm pretty safe here...

If they could just get the butterflies, cows and Canadian Geese to stop crapping all over the place we wouldn’t have this problem.

>>> ... butterflies which tend to emerge later in the year or fly higher in the mountains are probably more vulnerable becayse they have evolved to deal with a shorter window of opportunity to reproduce.
First they make a claim, after the study, they still use the language ‘could wipe out’, ‘are probably more vulnerable’, ....
That’s no scientific study. Nobody in a sciece field would write that “conclusion”.
Shameful how ‘science’ is being used.

Since our flowers came out in the spring we have noticed an over abundance of butterflies, many more than normal. Small, large, different colors, butterflies Ive never seen. A joy to sit and watch. Look for your garden to be attacked by a lot of caterpillars later this year.

Grasping at fairy dust.
The whole argument is specious.
Name one insect that humans have been able to eliminate.
Years of pesicides from DDT to Chlordane couldn’t eliminate termites.
Cockroaches have been around longer than dirt..fire ants anyone, how about cabbage lopers, the colorado cucumber beetle, the dreaded stink bug..
Pesticides aimed at them with massive spraying couldn’t kill them.
