Insects too have to eat something, they sh*t and produce CO2 and Methane. So how can insects be better than cows per ton of protein?

I wonder if those brilliant researchers stopped to think of where milk comes from.

Extracting protein from sewage could feed 95% of the politicians in the world. It could be marketed as “Toilet Tofu”.

Getting rid of 100 million leftists might help too.
Just a theory like manmade gorebal warming. Maybe we should try that first to see if it works

It would take a massive number of insects to ‘sustain’ one individual — daily.

What quantity of insects would it take to sustain 7 billion people, plus all of the other creatures that consume insects?

making fake steak out of bovine cells

What's the carbon footprint of the purified nutrients needed to culture the bovine cells? Of the sterilization needed to do cell culture?

You'd have to farm them.

Which would require an industry.

Which would require a lot of water and fossil fuels.

Back to square one!
