Let the UN try it on the hungry Venezuelan people?
Then on the hungry African and South American and Asian people.
Have the UN report back, in 50 yeara or more, on how successful that ‘experiment’ was and how healthy and happy those people became.
For some reason modern humans have stopped eating insects, even though it was once an important part of our diets. Still, does it have to be maggots?
“Be fruitful and multiply.”
Funny our Leaders don’t feel the first half of that applies to them...
Yeah, no. You go first.
Who believes these assholes anyway? Predictions are always difficult, especially about the future. /s
Like in 1989 - the sea level would rise 3 feet, coastal areas inundated no later than year 2000
If successful, it would quickly lead to doubling the world population to 18 billion.
I remember in the late 60s when the Interstate 270 circumferential road opened around St. Louis. The officials claimed that traffic jambs were cured for forty years. Of course, the developers quickly built out all the newly accessible land with mammoth subdivisions and within a couple years things were as bad as ever.
The population always has a tendency to expand to consume available resources.
They make great feed for chickens and fish. And you can grow them from just about anything organic, including food waste. Don’t eat the maggots, feed them to chicken and fish and then feast on them.
Be my guest, all who are so inclined. Bon appetit. Not for me.
Maybe in 50 years, people will pay top prices to eat maggots in restaurants.
I will never eat fly larvae. Never.
Maybe someone should show Africa how to grow food so they can stop leeching off of us
9 billion people, oh noes- that’s likely to take up bout 1/100’th of the earth- whatever will we do- we’re running out of room!
“To fill up the entire earth’s 148,940,000 km squared land area it would fit 148,940,000,000,000 people (148.94 trillion), or 21,000x more than today’s 7 billion population.”
if we put everyone in the world today, shoulder to shoulder, they would all fit in Rhode island-
The world is nowhere near close to running out of room or resources-
Make it taste like a Porterhouse and put on the bibs!
so how many thousands of tons of organic crap would have to be hauled to that “acre” during that year for their feed, and where would those thousands of tons of organic crap come from each year?
Hogwash. They have to feed on something, where does that come from? Think about it. Their feed comes from somewhere; did these “reputable scientists” consider that into the equation?
If I got hungry enough I could eat people that ate maggots, but eat maggots myself? Nope, not happening.
My two favorite bug/larvae recipes:
1. Feed bug/larvae to chickens. Eat the eggs. If not enough eggs, eat the chicken.
2. Feed bug/larvae to fish. Eat the fish.
I just lost my appetite!
I think this is their way of making a VAT tax increase seem palatable.
I’d rather make my own food and will never eat maggots.
Maggots Are Gross America!
I’m sure Zuckerberg, Musk, Gore and all will be eating insects with the rest of us.
