By the middle of this century, the earth’s population will reach 9 billion? The global food supply needs to increase by 70%? Scientists suggest: Use artificial meat to make up for food shortages!

The Royal Society published a research report on August 16, saying that it is expected to be by 2050 The global population will reach 9 billion. If you want to ensure that humans get enough food without destroying the environment, you may need to produce artificial meat.

In the next 40 years, there will be a global food shortage.

Scientists have pointed out that there will be no more land available for growing food crops in the world, and an insurmountable challenge for mankind is that the global food supply demand will increase by 70% in the next 40 years. Kenneth Strzepick, a professor at the University of Colorado in the United States, said that by 2050, the new population will double the global water demand, which means that the global water use for food crops will be reduced by 18%. He said that the combined impact of increased demand will be prominent in some hotspots, such as North Africa, India, China, parts of Europe and the western United States.

With artificial meat can "seed"

Scientists believe that, despite the traditional animal husbandry tools to meet most of Asia, Africa and some parts of the demand for meat, dairy products, but the development of new technologies is also essential. Philip Thornton, a scientist at the International Livestock Research Institute, said that two trump cards can change the global production of meat and dairy products. As a medium for delivering drugs to livestock, it is expected to become even more important."

Food waste must be reduced,

but many scientists still feel worried. An academic assessment led by the chief scientist of the British government John Beddington pointed out that even with the use of new methods such as nanotechnology, due to global warming, water shortages and food consumption Affected by comprehensive factors such as growth, hundreds of millions of people may still face hunger.

However, there are also a considerable number of scientists who are optimistic about the environmental impact. They believe that the large amount of carbon dioxide produced by global warming and increasingly high-quality fertilizers and pesticides can greatly increase food production and reduce the water demand for food production. In addition, scientists have proposed that substantially reducing food waste is also an effective way to make up for the lack of food supply.

    The story-free environmental preaching film finally throws out a terrifying conspiracy theory. The last line that prompted the truth was also selected as one of the greatest lines in AFI's history.
