What will be the food of the future? Will humans really be eating insects such as crickets and grasshoppers? A food crisis could be looming on the horizon. It is estimated that there will be 9 billion people on Earth by 2050, and our current methods of food production may not be able to keep up with demand. For instance, raising cattle requires a lot of food, land, and water but yields little edible meat in return. An Economist article states that “a cow takes 8 kg (17.6 lbs.) of feed to produce 1 kg (2.2 lbs.) of beef, but only 40% of the cow can be eaten.” We have to be more efficient in the way we grow food and find alternatives to some of the foods we currently eat in order to be able to feed more people. We will examine some of these alternatives in this episode of The Infographics Show, “What will we eat in the future?” If you liked this video, check out these videos by Be Amazed: Is THIS The Future Of Food?
