  • Résumé

  • Insects are dying off at an apocalyptic rate, or are they? Now there's a way to find out. In this limited series, we go to a remote island rainforest to listen to sound-based research that could reveal the truth about global insect death. Even if we find them icky, insects are essential to human, animal, and plant existence. If they disappear, we're all in deep trouble. Bill McQuay is an award-winning science and audio producer. In collaboration with a research team, he uses his investigative and listening skills to search for an answer to whether insects are on the verge of extinction.

    Aug 3 2023

    Several recent news reports have pointed to something terrifying: insect numbers are in catastrophic decline, with some even calling it an “insectageddon.” And while some scientists question these claims, most agree that the demise of these tiny creatures would be the end of us. In the inaugural episode of Insects and the Apocalypse, we explore the fundamental question: how does one even count insects? We then meet a team of scientists working in a small island rainforest who may have stumbled upon the answer.
