This whole thing is sad, if they wanted to make flour out of insects, they should at least make logical argument and give options, and what you raised about the food waste is true too:
"they forget to mention that 17% of the Food is wasted (UNEX Food Waste Report 2021). Disposed. Thrown away. And more than 700 millions of people are starving."
I've seen people, in my own country throwing food away! Edible food. Even our family doesn't save all our food from being wasted, but we try to feed animals what we don't eat. This 17% looks too low to me, which is a good thing if these were accurate stats.

these are some data I found in one of my recent researches to demonstrate how the BTC network is not so polluting if compared to wastes and other energy consumptions (like conditioned air).
And yes, in my house, we are close to 0% of food wasted because we use a very thorough check of what we have and what we should eat first.
Thanks for the points! Much appreciated
I already knew that. I think most people know, it's just...
If your neighbor had access to government-issued electricity, but he opted to not use it, and use a more expensive power generator that wastes a lot of gas. He'll have more energy for fractions of the cost if he just used the electricity the government gave him, but he hates the government just that much.
Now imagine if that same generator's noise reached your house and sometimes it gets you uncomfortable. You can live with that, but it just feels so unnecessary because you know how many resources it wastes and you think the government-issued electricity is totally fine.
See?
That's how Bitcoin feels to the people who don't see the value of it over Fiat, the cost-to-benefit proposition isn't logical to them at all.
