"CBS Saturday Morning" featured a segment about scientists suggesting that insects can be a good substitute for meat and soybean-based proteins for climate change.
Reporter Tina Kraus explained,"Adding some insects to the mix is customary in the kitchen in some parts of the world. Now climate experts think the protein-packed pests could offer a real solution to the global food crisis. Scientists in Germany are not pushing to get the critters your plate, they see another benefit.
"It's estimated up to 1.2 trillion insects are raised on farms each year as companies race to find a high-protein, low-carbon solution to feed animals and the world's population," Kraus stated.
