Yes, exactly, we should just plant trees, fruits trees, plants (and eat them! so many people ignore their fruits in their gardens, or worse, cut them), vegetables, that's all needed, and insects will be back contributing

Not sure I agree with this. Most fruit trees need 2 of them and wind or bees/insects. If we spray insecticide or anti-fungal on the fruit tree, which many people do, then we reduce the bees, and get no fruit. The insecticide seems to be the unnatural addition that impacts the ecosystem.

I would argue for reduced use of insecticide.

Of course not using insecticides! that was implicit, how could they come back else. You're right to mention it, I kinda forgot people used them, it sounds so useless and terrible
