Bugs are a source of cheap protein too, and it’s more of a cultural thing that they are not prevalent in most western cuisine. And there’s nothing wrong with small apartments; there are more needed anyways, since people tend to live alone these days. If there were more small, cheap living spaces in the US, then the suburban carcentric design, where you can’t reach a grocery store without a car, would have real competition. Higher population density also helps out communities because of lower infrastructure costs.
I’m not rich, but there’s nothing wrong with different food and small living spaces.
To be more specific, there’s nothing wrong with those things being a CHOICE. The problem is with specific individuals telling people that millions of others need to cut their carbon footprint to near zero so that they, as an individual, can keep using their private jet without feeling guilty. And that attitude can go die in a hole. But you knew that.
Yeah, i agree on all of those points; but i believe not everything should boil down to personal choice, we have governments to steer things.
Subventions for livestock should be on the chopping block - the emissions from livestock are about 1/3 of all of human-caused methane, so we should really discuss if dumping prices for meat is the way to go, and thats still ignoring the ethical angle of the meat industry.
And reducing the amount of car travel needed for daily things like work (WfH as an guaranteed option where possible for example) or groceries (including the fight against food deserts, in which zoning laws have quite an impact) is also something that can be worked towards and would help against climate change.
Nevertheless, the absolute waste of energy and resources, the excess the rich are living in has to go, or everything else is a moot point.
Dude, i’m not a bootlicker for advocating for cheap available housing or additional sources of food. I’m also not a bootlicker for pointing out that the zoning in the US is completely fucked up, or that i would definitely have a better conscience eating a burger made with bug protein than one with the meat of an animal that had a short, brutal life, which also massively contributed to climate change (livestock is about a third of human-caused methane emissions)
I’m open for options, i don’t say to force them on people.
And to be clear, at least in german speaking europe, far-right groups use(d? i don’t actively follow nazi propaganda) fear of “bug burgers” to campaign against anything the left leaning green party did, so please forgive me when my nazi detector misfired.

Fucking bootlickers, I swear.
Hey man, I’ll eat bugs to supplement my protein. I don’t want to eat only bugs, but it’s another protein option, and I see that as a good thing
