Dutch study suggests mealworms may be best 'sustainable' protein

The video highlights the environmental benefits of mealworm production compared to traditional livestock. Livestock production uses over a quarter of Earth's land and generates 15% of human-made greenhouse gases. In contrast, mealworms require significantly less land and produce fewer carbon emissions. The carbon dioxide from mealworm production mainly comes from energy use, not the worms themselves.
