George Monbiot, acclaimed writer for the British paper The Guardian and author of several books, believes that having the world adopt a faux protein flour made from different cell-cultured bacteria will help alleviate the international food shortages and supply chain woes.
The WinePress reported earlier this summer that The Guardian has also promoted the concept of donating pee to farmers as an alternative to conventional fertilizers, which are in short supply worldwide.
The systematic collapse of the worldwide food systems and trade is certainly not new news: this is, again, something The WP has been reporting on for some time; especially in the beginning of this year as concerning the initial fallout from the Russia-Ukraine conflict.

Currently Monbiot is on a tour promoting his latest book “Regenesis,” further discussing these food and supply chain disruptions that poses an “existential threat” to the planet and the people, while offering a potential solution to the problem.
To make a long story short – skipping past the commentary on the grim outlook of international food systems – the columnist sat down for an interview with Swedish outlet Aftonbladet to also discuss his potential solution to the imminent hunger crisis.
In past economic crises, central banks and government would print oodles of cash to attempt to temporarily alleviate the problem. But Monbiot says with food it’s just not that simple, right now that is.
We cannot save the food system with future food. Future food does not exist. We can create money out of thin air, we can say that “now we just invented more money”. But we can’t wave a magic wand to create more food.
Monbiot said
Aftonbladet wrote: ‘However, George Monbiot believes that there is a solution in what is called precision fermentation, which he believes can revolutionize food production.’
‘It involves using bacteria that feed on hydrogen or methanol, water, carbon dioxide and a little fertilizer to create a flour that contains 60 percent protein. One report estimates that precision fermentation with methanol requires 1,700 times less land than the most efficient agricultural means of producing protein: Soy grown in the United States,’ the Swedish publication added.
This can create a backup system that can produce huge amounts of food, any amount of food with very little water use, very little fertilizer.
Monbiot adds
The process described by Monbiot is similar to the processing used in making cultivated and lab-grown meats: where the proteins are fermented in a giant vat like a beer, and are then formed into the similitude of actual meat.
The World Economic Forum has promoted identical technology akin to what Monbiot described, which can create food out of literal thin-air.
Typically, for example, winemaking you add yeast to this sugarish liquid, and this yeast eats sugar for carbon and energy to grow and express some alcohol to surrounding liquid.
We do the same, but our microbe does not eat sugar, but it is hydrogen and carbon dioxide that we bubble in as gases in the fermenter. And that’s where the very fundamental point is how to disconnect from agriculture. No agricultural feedstock is used.
Pasi Vainikka, CEO of Solar Foods, the Finnish company the WEF has promoted
Monbiot goes onto explain how the livestock could be replaced with this new innovation and potentially prevent a total collapse of the world food supplies.
Monbiot says that as the world population continues to expand – which is forecast to have risen by 10 billion people by 2050 – says that the livestock industry is expected double by that rate, fearing that the cattle industry “will eat the world to extinction.”
In 2050, there will be another 100 million tons of people and another 400 million tons of livestock.
That is the problem. It is the cattle industry that is skyrocketing and it will eat the world to extinction. Getting out of the livestock industry should be a top priority for anyone who cares about the world and its people.
Solar Foods made a similar sales pitch as well as to why their fermented protein powders should be accepted.
Furthermore, when asked about the trifecta of soil degradation, lack of water, and rising temperatures; Monbiot had this to say:
It is a desperate situation and it is surprising to me that this does not weigh more heavily in the political debates. It is an existential threat that we face. There is no doubt that there are enormous threats to the food system. You mentioned water – this is arguably the biggest threat of all.
There is a general scientific consensus that we need about 50 percent more food by 2050 to avoid mass starvation. That can change if we change our diet, if we move away from animal husbandry we need to produce much less. There is also a broad consensus from agronomists that we can increase food production by 50 percent if we maximize harvest. But one study found it required a 146 percent increase in the amount of water we use. That water does not exist!
Even if you ignored all the other issues around climate breakdown, around land degradation, around the loss of genetic diversity in plants – the lack of water alone would be enough to destroy the food supply.
AUTHOR COMMENTARY
[17] Fools because of their transgression, and because of their iniquities, are afflicted. [18] Their soul abhorreth all manner of meat; and they draw near unto the gates of death. Psalms 107:17-18
Since the plant-based slop seems to be failing, perhaps the media is making a new push for this crap now. Will it succeed and will it be in the future? Perhaps, but I know I ain’t eating that “food.”
A lot of this is just another fever dream by these greenies eating too many heads of pesticide-laden broccoli. I still maintain the real push will be “normalized” cannibalism for the future:

But Monbiot’s and The Guardian’s mad ramblings once again align with what the King James Bible prophesized what would happen.
[1] Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; [2] Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron; [3] Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth. [4] For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving: [5] For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer. 1 Timothy 4:1-5
[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).

No bacteria flour for me! That’s nasty!
Watch for those ‘natural flavorings’ in ingredients lists, too. In certain cases, as the cosmetics industry etc, that may mean the cannibalism already via the abortion industry & commercialization of murder, & I believe in some foods. I mean, China, & her experimentations and internment/reeducation work camps: who would know? And what DOES leak out of the atrocities committed against the Uyghurs etc, & the initiations required of party ‘faithful’ is gross, disgusting & appalling enough…..seemingly sufficient to bring God’s judgment x7, let alone teaming with the wicked traitors using & partnering American wealth & Jesuit sorcery to that Dragon garbage. May those remaining slumbering in Laodicea awake & come out while they still can.

And, Jacob, Wow! Psalm 107….that’s so apt to this, with 1 Timothy4 KJB. And the context of it so appropriate to these days & those soon to come & with literal physical & spiritual application & rich meaning as Deuteronomy 8, and John 6&8. Fools, indeed. And, how many times as we read through the word do we read right past such nuggets? And each time through that Book the Lord brings new things to light…not every time & in the same way, but sufficient that there are those days & times we just sit in awe & amazement, or are moved to sing & thank him yet again, to repent of doubts creeping in or sowed by the Enemy….how could we doubt with such evident truth in the creation & that amazing, amazing Book that no way men could have EVER written or orchestrated with its depth, consistency and wonder, its prophecy fulfilled & yet to be? Only by neglecting it & starving, murdering our own souls & spirit….and then coarser & coarser evidences of that fact show up in the physical, natural world, the creation as men coarsen their own souls following their hearts & desires, turning from truth & conviction until God gives them over in judgment less obvious than the judgment we now see coming about all around us! That bowing wall ready to burst…

I add this one to balance the fear & apparent ‘victory’ of such fools who say in their hearts ‘there is no God’ and ‘all things continue as they were from the beginning’ (2 Peter 3), ‘today and tomorrow we shall go to such & such a city and get a great gain’ (James 4):
–
Revelation 11:18 And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth.
Yeah great to see that. I read Psalm 107 before and I did not notice the meat reference and tie-in to 1 Timothy 4.
Re-reading Psalms, I did come across Psalm 22 being a reference to Jesus Christ just recently (which is always a joy to find):
Psalm 22:16-18
16 For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked have inclosed me:
they pierced my hands and my feet.
17 I may tell all my bones: they look and stare upon me.
18 They part my garments among them,and cast lots upon my vesture.
And these, again involving David and Jesus Christ:
1 Chronicles 11:1
Then all Israel gathered themselves to David unto Hebron, saying, Behold, we are thy bone and thy flesh.
Ephesians 5:30
30 for we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones.
Personal experience, not being able to eat meat often because of gout (my fault, from past unhealthy lifestyle as a lost man), it will affect your body in a number of ways.
Psalm 22 is a joy! Gout is not. Definitely of the curse. My husband suffers from some of the more minor symptoms, & some not so much, like the tendency to kidney stones. (Probably from the same cause as yours, his being a lost past involving angry rebellion, military & alcohol….and I was no angel, unless you include those of the wrong sort.)

We’ve found that adding anti-inflammatory herbs & celery helps a lot, along with mild herbal diuretics like parsley, also doing fresh juice from time to time, carrot, celery, lemon, parsley, some beet & granny smith apple to make it more palateable….and he hasn’t had a bout with stones since. But the joint pain & occasional swelling still acts up. Between that and my cancer, we do what we can & the Lord is good: but we are both looking very forward to those glorified & incorruptible bodies!
–
David & Hebron, the type of Christ & his brethren….is fascinating to study & meditate upon. The prince from Ezekiel 40 onwards probably figuring in there. The cults mess some of that up so much that the beast system will likely incorporate their corruptions. Probably reflected in the versions & their pattern of changes, though I’ve never looked into that angle. I know confounding the identities of Christ and antichrist, Lucifer & Christ, and many other latter day prophetic texts are targeted & corrupted.

Good scripture to have down solid & teach others, if they’ll hear it. More deception coming….and for those going into that terrible time, it will be worse.
I don’t listen to goobers of the British kind.
Jacob’s trouble table is set to be very nasty, so glad I won’t be eating from that table, and I am so glad to be eating from the Lords table which will be delicious !
Amen, Cary! I want to be part of the Bride of Christ and have a humble, joyous feast as His bride at the marriage supper of the lamb. I will love that so much and be so flattered by that!
The only tears I’ll have will be at the judgement seat of Christ when I learn about rewards I’ve missed out on and tears of joy.
Back on earth…chaos, hysteria, and pandemonium. Emergency dispatchers and missing persons hotlines are being flooded. People are running, yelling, screaming, getting into scuffles and fistfights, throwing and breaking things, fainting, vomiting, having panic attacks, sobbing, trembling, wetting their pants, and any attempts for police, ambulance and fire departments to maintain law and order will be futile.
Airplanes will make emergency landings – a flight from Toronto, Canada to Miami, Florida will make an emergency landing in Virginia and a flight from New York to London makes an emergency landing in Iceland and the airports will be madhouses.
ISAIAH 45 seems fitting in these time.
Please pray for the body of for the church and their families.
I too am in prayer.
Thank you
It is an amazing chapter including the Lord’s strange work. Witches love quoting Isaiah 45:7 and ascribing the self-corruption of Lucifer in Ezekiel 28 and the iniquity found in him as a work of God….from the Augustinian craft corrupters & their perverse doctrine twisting God’s sovereignty into karma: their ‘election’ to the hard core pagan antichrists (who I believe are the most honest of the two types & with the most potential to salvation), with their imaginary & unbiblical eternity past, the yin & yang dragon/serpent fertility filth, & all those who teach forms of semitic taquiyya and mental assent ’embracing their darkness’ & ‘drawing love circles to inclusively men in’, ‘compelling’ them to come in redefined, working their circle spells.

Slandering God as having evil in himself, equating him with the ancient gods of the pagans, the god of forces….yin and yang.

Verse 18 reflects teaching on Genesis 1:2 …..with darkness without light, and the earth void. Not created that way.
————————————-
Genesis 1:1-5 KJB ¶ In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
Ge 1:2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
Ge 1:3 ¶ And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
Ge 1:4 And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.
Ge 1:5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.

As I understand it’s in plain English read in its entirety context God creates good to those that live in his word and do his good works and creates darkness and evil to punish the wicked for doing works of darkness and evil. Not “karma” rooted origin in Hindu. But rather REWARD being the correct word when speaking of God’s ways.
Proverbs 24:20
For there shall be no reward to the evil man; the candle of the wicked shall be put out.
Isaiah 3:11
Woe unto the wicked! it shall be ill with him: for the reward of his hands shall be given him.
Psalms 94:2
Lift up thyself, thou judge of the earth: render a reward to the proud.
Revelation 18 REALLY clears up the definition of reward in its context .
Didn’t know the bit you mentioned on witches. But not surprised as all the unsaved never understand scripture.
Proving yet again God’s Holy word is for the saved cause he gives them understanding through his Holy Spirit.
But interesting to know coz it’s another proof of Their father (satan) who can quote scripture too and transforms into an angel of light.
But rest assure they that sow evil will reap worse evil upon themselves.
Psalms 9:
15The heathen are sunk down in the pit that they made: in the net which they hid is their own foot taken. 16The LORD is known by the judgment which he executeth: the wicked is snared in the work of his own hands. Higgaion. Selah. 17The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.
