And, in actuality, it really doesn't have to be about the increased cancer rates and shit like that.

It really should be about the single most precious natural resource on the planet - clean water.

It takes approximately 2,500 gallons of water to produce one pound of beef. That's ten ****ing tons. Think about that the next time you have a steak. Ten ****ing tons of water for one pound of beef.

But yet, it takes one gallon of water to produce one pound of cricket protein.

Global sustainability. With 7,000,000,000 people on the planet, it's downright selfish and morally corrupt to be eating a food source that requires ten ****ing tons of water to produce one pound of food.

The dorm showers were

1) communal
2) non-heated

And he would grouse fortnightly about people taking too long showers and 'wasting' water. I was like 'wasting how?' Rocketing it to Mars? Burying it in a barrel? Retaining it through a high sodium diet?

Water is an incredibly durable molecule. Our petty needs might dirty it up for a while, but we have myriad ways to return it to purity, and the earth has exponentially more to do so on it's own. So what if a portion of water is bound up in cow shit for a moment or two? The sun will hit that patty, evaporation will occur, it will rain down somewhere else, circle of life.
