Eating pollutes: however we put it, this is an incontrovertible truth. Already today, food production alone is responsible for 30% of greenhouse gas emissions. But then what should we do? In the meantime, be careful not to waste it, over 17% is thrown away. Then understand that there are foods that have more impact, others less. Eating less meat would be a good place to start. Finally, invest in technology, focus on sustainable agriculture which guarantees the same results but with less water, less fertilizers, fewer pesticides.

If eating pollutes, then let's try to be careful. But how? There are solutions, some have always existed, others looking to the future. If insects, mushrooms and algae have always been present, and with excellent results, in the diets of peoples far from ours, why don't we try to taste them? Or we could eat meat produced in the laboratory, or almond, rice, soy, oat milk, or even 3D printed vegetable steaks: science does not stop and the real challenge to convince us to eat all this will be that... of taste.

Eating one's own kind, is there anything more scabrous, almost inconceivable? Yet, in human history it has always been done, partly for ritual purposes, sometimes out of necessity, sometimes out of criminal perversion.

Finally, there is positive cannibalism: that of the cells of our body, which feed on themselves, on their own waste, producing positive effects on our health.
