Good video, tho I have to say we probably shouldn’t do it. They say in the vid that mosquitoes are a Pollinator, and seeing as how we have fewer native pollinators in many regions around the globe, making one of those extinct most likely wouldn’t do us any favors. The vid says an organism could potentially take its place, but hoping for one is far from knowing that one will appear. The risks seem to outweigh the benefits imo, but something absolutely must be done about the rapid spread of Malaria, which is especially prevalent among the global South

They preform an extremely small percent of pollinations, and it is a very faulty premise.
