Did You Eat Your Worms?! DESCRIPTION:\n\n\nTahner Green1\nFaculty Mentor: Kimberly Nehls, Ph.D.1\n1Lee Business School, Department of Marketing and International Business\nABSTRACT\nIf Americans include insects as part of their diets, global pollution will decrease. Insects use less water to farm, produce 85% less methane than regular barn animals, and are packed with nutrition. As I analyzed the world population, I discovered that 80% of the world already eats bugs as part of their diets. It’s especially popular in underdeveloped countries. Spreading the popularity to America will be difficult, as the most consumed meat is Chicken, Cows, and Pigs. These animals are mass produced and cause a huge impact on the environment. In conclusion, if we work together to bring insects in American meals, we can decrease global warming and create a sustainable environment.\n URL:https://oursymposium.sites.unlv.edu/program/did-you-eat-your-worms/ ORGANIZER;CN=The Office of Undergraduate Research:MAILTO:our@unlv.edu CATEGORIES:Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
