Farmer: "Gentlemen. I'd like to present the ultimate plant-based protein technology."
Investor 1: "We're listening."
Farmer: "It converts inedible plant matter into complete protein. Grass, cornstalks, brewery waste, vegetable peelings. Anything cellulose-rich that humans can't digest."
Investor 2: "Energy requirements."
Farmer: "Sunlight."
Investor 2: "For the plant matter, you mean."
Farmer: "And for the conversion. Same sunlight. Reused."
Investor 3: "Heating costs for the bioreactor."
Farmer: "None. The unit holds 38.5 degrees year-round on its own."
Investor 1: "Failure rate."
Farmer: "Self-repairing. The unit also replicates once a year at no additional cost."
Investor 3: "Replicates."
Farmer: "Produces a smaller version of itself. Which becomes a full unit."
Investor 2: "Net carbon."
Farmer: "Neutral. The carbon in goes back to the air the grass pulled it from. Round and round, same atoms, no new ones added."
Investor 1: "And the waste output."
Farmer: "Twenty tonnes of soil enrichment per unit per year. The waste is also a product."
Investor 2: "This would obliterate Beyond Meat."
Farmer: "It already has. They just don't know yet."
Investor 1: "Where can we see one."
Farmer: "There are about 1.5 billion currently deployed. Have been for ten thousand years."

Investor 3: "It's a cow, isn't it."
Farmer: "It's a cow."
Investor 2: "We were promised plant-based."
Farmer: "The plant goes in one end. I don't know what else you wanted."
Did you know that if you put 100 black ants and 100 red ants together in a jar, they usually coexist peacefully? But if you shake the jar hard, they immediately turn on each other and start killing one another. The red ants see the black ants as enemies, and the black ants see the red ants as enemies. Yet the real enemy is the one shaking the jar.
The same thing happens in human society. Before we turn on each other, we should stop and ask ourselves: who is shaking the jar?
@Megatron_ron Every “war” is theater intended to manufacture crisis and justification for “solutions”
I suggest buying a little bit of extra meat to add to the freezer + non perishables to slowly stock up.
Between rising oil + fertilizer prices we are going to see some BIG problems soon.
@SHEEPSLIVE The “God” from Genesis is not who most people think he is. Watch “Two Gardens and a Snake” on YouTube by Anderson. It will change your world!
@far_leftie@LightOnLiberty “from the beginning” means from Genesis. The snake is not the devil. Search YT for “two gardens and a snake”. If you watch this, your view of everything might be changed.
@LightOnLiberty There’s one thing most get wrong about Genesis. The snake is not the devil. The snake did not lie nor deceive. You find who the lier and deceiver is. But searching on YT for “two gardens and a snake” might help you understand. And once you do, there’s no turning back.
