I'd rather eat people.

What a loser you must be. I bet you also don't believe in vaccines and climate change. You'd rather leave the world shit for the people who have to live here in 100 years. All so you can sit on your couch and eat a room temp steak dipped in ketchup while you watch reruns of Nash Bridges.

If you eat any food then you're already eating bugs lol

You also have mites in your eyelids like everyone else

This is probably the most disingenuous argument I’ve seen about this. Mites in your eye lashes have nothing to do with food and the amount of bugs allowed in our food is negligible. Purposefully eating them is completely different than incidentally eating them.

TBH eating bugs will probably be cleaner. Insects have fewer natural parasites, and often have a wide range of important nutrients in them. Think of it this way. Chicken nuggets, ground beef, breakfast sausage are all ground remnants of the animal. How about instead of pork/chicken/ beef ground up, we do bugs? I bet they could be seasoned and modified accordingly to match the desired pallette. Around the world, outside of the relatively small western hemisphere bugs are widely consumed when available.

Is it a major problem? Right now Europe is backpedaling fast on its stance towards using coal and other stuff for heating homes. The investments are needed more elsewhere, most importantly in energy production and storage as well as power infrastructure modernisation.

And I'll leave bugs for you, I'd rather buy lab grown meat.

Meanwhile the rich are going to be eating filet mignon and crab each night made in extremely expensive ways. Their lives don't change, we eat bugs. If we taxed the shit out of their excess wealth right now we could be building nuclear reactors and getting ourselves out of this heat-induced mess.
