Years in the making, I focus on the science behind the grazing side of regenerative agriculture, comparing it with a plant-based food system that enables large-scale rewilding.

J'en profite pour partager l'analyse qu'en a fait Benoît Pelopidas, un des rares experts mondiaux sur le sujet.

L’hédonisme éthique dit une chose simple, mais radicale : Seul le plaisir a une valeur en soi.
Tout ce qui est bon le serait parce que c’est plaisant – rien d’autre.
Je revisite dans mon article les grandes critiques de cette théorie. 🧵
For a quick overview, check out the conclusion and Table 3 of the article, which summarize the main studies on environmental impacts. :)
➡️ Insect-based fertilizers show interesting potential, but their large-scale impacts remain unknown.
➡️ The use of waste to feed insects, while potentially having a positive environmental impact, remains very limited.
The environmental impacts of insects when used for:
🔹 Pets (the main current market)
🔹 Humans
🔹 Livestock (particularly in aquaculture)
🔹 Fertilizers (frass)
We also examined risks related to biodiversity and the potential spread of pathogens.
New paper out today: Have the environmental benefits of insect farming been overstated? A critical review
tldr: raising insects for feed and food might not be the sustainable solution we expected 😱

C'est un travail formidable qui a été réalisé et j'ai eu l'honneur de faire partie des 30 personnes qui ont été interviewées, pour évoquer les liens avec le capacitisme.
