Bug Out: Cicada Chaos and Radioactive Honey
b'We might think of insects as pests, annoying little creatures that enter our homes uninvited, that buzz incessantly and bite us without cause. But insects make the world go round. They can be found in nearly every environment, and it\\u2019s estimated that over 90% of the animal life forms on Earth are insects. The balance of the natural world depends on them. \\n\\nThis week, we\\u2019re putting insects front and center. We unpack the mysterious patterns of cicadas in the US, investigate the presence of radioactive isotopes in bees, meet a self-professed edible insect ambassador, and do some insect cooking of our own.'
