Let's check in on Gerald, who is diverting food from starving children.
6:00am - Gerald ate grass. The grass grew on a 40-acre clay slope that has been permanent pasture since 1763 and cannot grow human food. The starving children situation was not affected by the grass.
7:30am - Gerald ate some hedge browsings. Hawthorn and field maple trimmings from the east boundary. Not on any nutrition label. Cannot be processed into human food. Gerald ate them. The hedge now needs less management. Gerald charged nothing.
10:00am - Gerald ate some brewers' grain. This is what is left after barley has been used to make beer. It is spent. The sugars are gone. The protein remains, but in a form that is nutritionally marginal for humans. The options for this material are: Gerald, biogas, or landfill. Gerald ate it and is turning it into beef.
12:00pm - Gerald ate silage. Silage is fermented grass. The grass came from the same field it always comes from. The field cannot grow crops. The silage cannot go to Ethiopia. Silage requires a rumen.
2:00pm - Gerald ate more grass. Gerald has now been eating things that cannot feed humans for eight consecutive hours.
At no point today did Gerald intercept a food supply.
At no point today did Gerald remove calories from the human food system.
At every point today, Gerald was converting materials that are nutritionally useless to humans into beef, B12, zinc, iron, creatine, heme iron, and fat-soluble vitamins.
The beef will go to the abattoir.
The beef will go to the supermarket.
The beef will go to families in Ledbury and Bristol and Wolverhampton.
Gerald is the only system that connects these waste materials to human nutrition.
Gerald does not know about Ethiopia.
Gerald does not know about the global food system.
Gerald is in the south corner.
Gerald is converting the unconvertible.
You're welcome.
