Reply to comment by Pubelication in Inside an insect farm: Are mealworms a sustainable meat alternative? by vpuetf

oh wow its almost like we're trying to find alternatives that pollute less, require less overhead and logistics. but based off this comment section y'all don't give a shit, you just want meat no matter the consequences

Okay, but like I mentioned, fruits/vegetables require much more logistics as they don't grow year-round, whereas a pig dgaf about winter if it has a pen.

it also needs to shit, fart, eat, drink water, breathe, etc. animals need a metric fuck ton more resources than plants.

live stock uses 36% of all crops we grow for animal feed.

80% of ALL agricultural land goes toward livestock or their food.

it also takes YEARS to actually eat it, a fucking sweet potatoe takes like 90 days to grow.

we could easily feed the world 4 times over if we didn't have such a meat addiction, but we rather destroy the planet than quit eating as much meat.
