There has been a huge chain reaction in the food chain, especially with birds (nature's natural pestocide). And the figures shouldn't phase us, by now we all know that statistics are used to convey a message moreso than organize information. The point is there has been a huge reduction in insects and we all have noticed it.
As for the jungles, pesticides and other airborne poisons do indeed get into them. The Gates foundation has bragged about spraying the Amazon with chemicals. Not to mention deforestation... 1/2 to 3/4 figure worldwide sounds believable to me.
But the number isnt the point. The message is that insects are dying out rapidly; there is no need to nitpick the statistics.
