The world isn't going to turn vegan. But technology will eventually end meat farming......just as technology is going to end many jobs and professions. Kids born today will end up seeing cows and chickens in zoos instead of farms......in the west anyway. That will only happen if we as a species haven't already destroyed ourselves and become extinct and replaced by a far superior species. Which is probably the more likely outcome.

Kids born today will end up seeing cows and chickens in zoos instead of farms......in the west anyway. It already is. You only have to look at the number of films on netflix - What the health, cowspiracy, Forks over knives, Okja amongst about 20 of them and the fact that they are influencing people and opening their eyes to the health benefits of a vegan diet as well as the devastating effect the meat and dairy industries are having on the planet. There are people who dont believe in climate change but plenty of people do and knowing that their diet is a major cause will make them question their dietary choices further. I believe it will happen and if it doesnt it will only be because we are so stupid and messed up that we destroy ourselves, the planet and everything on it first.

They are slowly being introduced into western culture now, so surely it's just a matter of time. Scorpion on a stick is really tasty so I hear.

I saw a TV program a few months ago about a UK company that breeds insects to cook in their own restaurant and everyone that tried their insect burgers said how nice they were. Anyone who fancies nibbling on a bug can buy them here [Link]

People would live longer if they stopped drinking alcohol all the time, didn't smoke, exercised regularly, ate less and wore sunscreen when outside for long periods.
