Yeah the data indicates we've killed so many they haven't been able to repopulate fast enough.

They're not avoiding the roads there's just not as many bugs flying around anymore

Interesting, there are also reports like this so maybe it differs by region?https://www.nature.com/articles/s41559-020-1269-4

Could also vary by ecosystem, https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.aax9931

I agree that humans are creating irreversible environmental changes though, I just hate the simplicity of science memes sometimes because it all just starts to sound like dogma

I mean realistically we've done/are doing irreparable damage either way.

Regardless of the region we're causing massive population drops among pretty much every species.
