Lack of objectivity

edit

Although I'm totally in favour of what Buglife represents and achieves, I find this article far too biased and promotional to be acceptable for Wikipedia. Much is a straight lift from their website viz: "Today bugs are under threat as never before, so help us to secure a diverse and wildlife-rich planet . . ."
