But for whom?:
Ricky Gervais thinks bees are more important than humans.
The 59-year-old comedian has admitted he believes the world would actually be a “better place” if the human species were to be completely wiped out.
Ricky said: “We are part of nature – we are not above it – we are not in charge. We are not even the most important species.
“If we were wiped out tomorrow the world would be a better place … it would go back and it would be perfect again.”

He might be joking but then …
Who said there was ever a perfect world anyway? Perfection is only possible in eternity, not time.
