lack of bugs, mostly due to global warming pesticide use, and planting non-native ornamental plants, most of which can be weedy or poisonous.

More specific for a better visualization, bugs hitting the windshield of a car. I had never thought about it until someone pointed it out, It was so common back in the day, in the 90s at least.

That opening scene in MIB is not relatable anymore.
