If I was just temperature increase you would just see increases in cooler areas and decreases in warmer areas. It would be a wash if the disappearing butterflies were moving into cooler areas.
As they note it's destruction of habitat. Now do we go back to paying a little to farmers for Not planting areas? The US Ag depts use to do that. It allowed small farmers to leave certain areas unplanted, uncultivated, and it served as habitat for all sorts of wildlife. We subsidize huge 1,000 acre farms right now. They plant all of it. There are no longer any strips left uncultivated for wildlife habitat. Yes, we paid farmers Not to farm. But it helped.
And then of course we have Round Up and deadly pesticides that we allow to be dumped on our food such as wheat, soy, corn, sugar beets and rice. And it's not just poured on once. Once a week a poisonous chemical is poured on all our food from almonds to grapes, strawberries to eggplants. All those chemicals are killing off our beneficial insects.
