PR or serious? Scientist urged to eat human flesh
 

Environmentalists and greens partly blame the meat industry and agriculture for global warming. To put it mildly, an eccentric solution to this problem was proposed by the Swedish behavioral scientist Magnus Söderlind. 

Söderlund, speaking on Swedish television as a guest expert on “food for the future,” said he would hold a series of seminars on the prospects for human consumption in order to stop climate change.

If people eat their own kind, then this, according to the scientist, will solve the issue of climate change and help save the environment.

 

One of the biggest obstacles to him is the social taboos associated with the dead, because for many, eating carrion will seem like a desecration. Söderlund noted that people are “slightly conservative” in their eating habits and are not inclined to eat things they are not used to, such as corpses. 

Experts from other countries refrained from commenting, suggesting that such statements by a colleague from Sweden, perhaps, should not be taken seriously, since they may be just a part of the scientist’s self-PR program.

We will remind, earlier we told why many people blame fast food for the problem of global warming.
