Just you wait, the effects are subtle and interlinked. If the bees eventually go extinct (which is happening right now), most plant species on earth will cease to exist. This includes fruit trees, but also a boundless number of plants animals need as food sources; animals that have other responsibilities in their ecosystems, like fertilizing the soil, transporting nutrients, and devouring vermin. Earth is inhabitable without a functioning ecosystem, and humans are about to learn that. We’re taking it apart piece by piece, until the cascade cannot be stopped anymore. It cannot be overstated how dangerous the current situation is.

I would be in favor of replacing the US flag with this, since flags are everywhere in the states and you'd have to see this every day, likely multiple times.
