The cicadas are sound-producing insects in a superfamily, the Cicadoidea, of insects in the order Hemiptera (true bugs). They are physically distinguished by their stout bodies, broad heads, clear-membrane wings, and large compound eyes, found chiefly in warm countries. These large homopterous insect Cicadas are famous for their penchant for disappearing entirely for many years, only to reappear in force at regular intervals. Several cultures regarded these insects as powerful symbols of rebirth due to their unusual life cycles. The cicada has the longest life cycle of any insect, ranging from 2 to 17 years, they feed on tree roots. Brood X (Brood 10), one of the periodical cicadas from the United States has the greatest range and concentration of any of the 17-year cicadas. When they are ready to emerge as adults, they dig out of the ground, crawl up onto a tree or the side of a building, and shed their exoskeleton for the last time. A freshly emerged Lemuriana apicalis (Germar,1830) Cicada nymph beside its golden color shell or exoskeleton waiting for the wings to unfurl at Tehatta, West Bengal; India on 07/08/2023.

Diesel fuel pump at a Petro-Canada gasoline station in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, on March 05, 2022. The rising cost of diesel could ultimately inflate food prices by 30 to 35 per cent, compounding Canada's inflation, according to petroleum industry analysts. Ontarians have seen gasoline prices rise to record levels in the wake of Russia's decision to invade Ukraine and diesel prices have also been on an upward trajectory amid the geopolitical tensions and are now up five cents so far this week. Experts predict that the rising cost of fuel will likely drive inflation to levels we have 'probably not seen in our in our lifetime'.
