Eat More Bugs : Entomophagy in Vermont For a New Protein Paradigm

Past event
Feb 7, 2014, 7 to 8:30 PM

The dietary use and creation of protein in Vermont has been rough on the land and watersheds and has adversely impacted biodiversity. In this lecture, Rachael Young will explore insect protein, and its current and historical ecological effects, for human health and environmental conservation. Beginning with a historical perspective through the eyes of early conservationist and Vermonter George Perkins Marsh, with humans as a geologic force upon nature, this lecture is a call to action for conservation-based diets that go beyond sustainability.

Friday, February 7, 7:00 p.m.
at the Unitarian Church of Montpelier
Fee: $5 suggested donation
