I keep hearing crickets are very good

I would actually try them

Are locusts the same as crickets? It would make a nice feast every 17 years.

If only the Egyptians of Moses’ day had only EATEN the locusts, they could have completely avoided one plague!

Are they following their own advice or is this another sham by the experts expecting us to conform to a solution for a fictional problem.

I am all for these “researchers” and “scientists” living in a shack in the woods with no electricity and having a diet of grubs and roots. If they do it for even six months and can still tell me how great it is, I might listen to them. Until then...

...hypocrites. All of them.

Bill Nye and planned parenthood want us to eat babies. It’s a more direct solution.

Just leave things alone and climate change will kill off large numbers of earth’s population.

HA! These “researchers” discuss such ideas at conferences held in five-star European hotels where they are served five-course meals that feature filet mignon.

I don't know about that? Eating crickets and mealworms would substantially increase my stinky emissions of gases

Co2 emissions make plants grow. More co2, more plants and more food for all. When the earth warms it gets wetter and more lush and more life sustaining. The warming happens mostly mear polls where its too cold. And currently the Earth is below average temp per the natural processes we can do.little to influence and it would be great if we had more warmth. This is all well known actual scirnce. The idea that co2 is a pollutant is a scam pushed by governments and not inspired by science.

The coupla hundred thousand insects in my back yard make food for me to eat and sell. Why would I want to eat them?

Insects too have to eat, they defecate and fart, just like cows.
Probably no substantial difference in emissions between producing a ton of insect meat or cow meat.

Even if it did help Father Earth, I wouldn’t want to eat a Democrat?
