According to the article:
“The raising of livestock consumes two-thirds of the planet's farmland, and is a major source of greenhouse gases. Meanwhile, tons of edible, sustainable protein swarms all around us, free for the taking. In a new policy paper being considered by the UN's Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), Belgian entomologist Arnold van Huis makes the sensible recommendation that the western world eat more insects.”
“Introducing a bug-rich diet to the western world might be more of a challenge”
“A challenge”, no kidding. Would you be interested in this? Would this perhaps be a benefit to mankind?
