The climate change tyranny is moving like wild fire here by the elites, as their fixation against meat has led to the culture of the bug. The aim is to use bug protein to replace beef as part of the agenda of zero net emissions, while China blazes away building new coal-fired power plants, because, well, they are not white, and climate change is supposedly the new white man’s burden. Hopefully, some Darwinian event will bring the system down before our precious beef is eliminated. Then the Left can really eat bugs. Or, more likely, bugs will eat the Left!
“Burgers made of bugs will replace beef in the British diet within a decade in order to hit the green agenda ‘net zero’ government targets, a Great Reset-style taxpayer-funded review has predicted.
The UK Research and Innovation Council (UKRI) said that meat substitutes made from insects, such as mealworms and crickets, are more environmentally friendly as they require less space and feed compared to traditional bovine burgers.
“Although methane inhibitors in feed could reduce emissions by around 30 per cent, meat is still one of the highest-impact foods,” the UKRI said per The Sun.
The public body, which is funded by the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS), also suggested that Britons could swap their beloved fish with lab-grown seafood-esque products in order to combat over-fishing.
The UKRI went on to say that fried eggs may become a thing of the past as well, claiming that eating two fried eggs per day will equate to the same amount of energy used to heat the average home per month.
The dystopian report questioned: “What will your Friday fish and chips look like in 2030?”
“To close Net Zero Week 2021 we’re looking at how the research we support can help us produce our food in a more climate-friendly way, and how our behaviour and expectations might need to change, too,” the taxpayer-funded quango added.
Prime Minister Boris Johnson has pledged to reduce carbon emissions in the United Kingdom to “net-zero by 2050″. The move would cost the UK over £3 trillion, or £100,000 per household, according to a report from the Global Warming Policy Foundation in February of last year.
The buggy predictions were widely criticised as being “out of touch” with reality, with the Chief Executive of the Countryside Alliance, Tim Bonner, saying: “I’m not sure there will be much of a buzz out there for chomping on fly filled burgers, but there will continue to be a growing appetite for sustainable grass-fed British beef produced by our fantastic farmers.
“UK Research And Innovation appear to be somewhat out of touch with what the vast bulk of people would be prepared to accept.”
A spokesman for the National Farmers Union added: “It’s crucial people are making informed diet decisions based on accurate information; when people buy British meat and dairy they are buying sustainable, local food, produced in areas often where it is difficult to grow other foods.”
But will the rich be eating bugs on their carbon spewing super-yachts?
