The protein crunch - Civilisation on the brink reveals the shocking truth of how we have abused the very ground we stand on, the water we drink and the seas that cover our planet. Water, land and sea combine to produce the food we eat. These natural resources have become critically degraded at a time when our expanding population needs them most: we must act now. The protein crunch offers conditional hope for the future: and the condition is that certain actions are taken now rather than postponed. Hope without action is just a comforting illusion. The rich and fat buy food from the bellies of the poor and starving. 25 000 people a day die from starvation whilst as many die of obesity-related conditions. Has the world gone mad or is capitalism and its food system simply failing us? We spend trillions on human healthcare and invest almost nothing in caring for the Earth on which we all depend. We have a carbon neutralisation tax - do we need a population neutralisation tax as well? Should we listen to those individuals who are passionate about the environment or the government and their scientific advisors? Remember that a lone amateur built the Ark, and a large group of professionals built the Titanic.
