Did you know firefly populations are shrinking? Did you also know that over 700 people have volunteered to journal their insect observations in an attempt to help scientists discover this potential extinction of the glowing insect?
Tons of volunteers tracking fireflies.
I am amazed that people will go so far as to track the appearance of fireflies but are too busy to:
Vote
Write a thank you note
Give to a food bank
Read to their kids
Maybe I an cynical, and its not that I have some aversion to fireflies, its just very odd to me that all those people would jump to this cause but let seemingly more urgent issues pass them by.
