"Saving the planet one plateful at a time does not mean cutting back on meat, according to new research: the trick may be to switch our diet to insects and other creepy-crawlies.

The raising of livestock such as cows, pigs and sheep occupies two-thirds of the world's farmland and generates 20% of all the greenhouse gases driving global warming. As a result, the United Nations and senior figures want to reduce the amount of meat we eat and the search is on for alternatives.

A policy paper on the eating of insects is being formally considered by the UN Food and Agriculture Organisation. The FAO held a meeting on the theme in Thailand in 2008 and there are plans for a world congress in 2013."

My two-word response?

Is the second word 'that', and does the first start in 'F'?

I'm beginning to think that all the world's political elite are on some kind of narcotic. How else can one account for their bizarre stupidity?

...and we (the taxpayers) are paying for it.

[shane1000]

would it not be a better idea if we remove all the meat from their country and leave them to eat whats left ? so my two words would be  "take away" ( chinese)

Having eaten various crawling type "bush tucker" years ago where I drew the line at worms, I can only say:

Not raw.
