As long as people turn to eating this, the Earth can be saved

Human development also entails an increase in natural extraction with dizzying speed.

According to many experts predict that in the future, when natural resources are no longer available, climate change, even the cultivation of food is impossible. The lack of food will make humans no longer able to survive on Earth, because it has become a dead planet.

To avoid that future, mankind is doing everything possible. From measures to reduce emissions, enhance the development of clean fuels, actively recycling . to "artificial meat" research to prepare for food shortages.

However, humankind can save a great deal of money on artificial meat, if it convinces people to switch to eating something else, instead of eating meat. This dish is very nutritious, quite easy to eat if it is processed, and more importantly helps to reduce a large amount of greenhouse gases emitted by the livestock industry.

That magical dish is an insect !

Turning to insect consumption, a large amount of greenhouse gas emissions during the breeding process is also minimized.

According to a recent study by experts from the University of Edinburgh (Scotland), only half of the world meat consumption is reduced and transferred to crickets or pupae, the amount of land needed for livestock will be reduced to 1/3.

Not to mention, a large amount of greenhouse gas emissions during the breeding process is also minimized. And even, even if only a small part of the human race has turned to insects, the planet has many benefits.

Livestock is an industry with too many impacts on the environment.

"Combining many changes in consumption habits , such as changing beef into chicken, cutting down on wasting food, and putting insects on a daily diet is enough to build a sustainable food system." - Dr. Peter Alexander from Edinburgh University said.

According to Dr., this is the first study comparing common meats with some alternative foods - like insects, tofu and artificial meat.

Insects and tofu are considered to be a more sustainable food source, requiring less energy to produce.

Meanwhile, artificial meat in terms of sustainability is just the same as raising chickens, collecting eggs, but consuming more energy. So in terms of economic problems, insects are clearly the best solution for humanity.

A dairy cow can emit 110kg of methane per year just by burping .

But to get insects into the daily diet requires a lot of effort, both by science and by propaganda. Because of the fact that we can hardly persuade someone to stop eating steak and move to chew on crickets .
