L2Read?

Your articles are not contradictory. The first one doesn’t say insects will increase. It says the amount insects will eat will increase. More CO2 = Plants work less hard to grow = less nutrients when eaten = insects/herbivores need to eat more.

Second article says insects find it hard to reproduce in a hotter environment.

If you had the slightest bit of logical ability, you would see why these are not contradictory or call into question the theory of AGW.

1. CO2 will not always cause global warming. Any temp increase may be drowned out by other factors leading to a higher CO2 yet the same/cooler temperatures.

2. Eating more and reproducing less are hardly contradictory. See if you can find out how.

I’ve noticed however, that instead of arguing, you choose to link to sites you could just barely categorize as “news” sites. No commentary by you, no argument laid out, just a bunch of links that make your bias clear and your position stupid.

I guess when you don’t really HAVE evidence or data or an argument that’s all you can do though.
