Global warming: the true roots of the plague

[DNJACK]

Ok I made a realization, and please hear me out this is serious as shit.

With every car on the street, with every cow that farts, with every plane the flies, greenhouse gases are released. And the more food we produce, the more weight we lift from the ground and transport on the road, the bigger the problem is. So you know where I am going with this. Fatties. Figurative cows. They are the ones behind it all. Maybe you can do some impacts but giving up on all meat. But it's a drop in the bucket compared to that bitch that eats 250 pounds of fried chicken and take a tractor to move to the hospital.

Consider this: It takes a 5ft 10in 160lb male doing light activity 2,361 Calories/day to maintain his weight. It takes 3,858 Calories/day to maintain the weight of a man of the same height and age at 400lbs. That's almost twice the caloric intake which means twice the food and twice the cow farts to keep that fatass alive. And that fatass is still gonna fart too.

All of us liberals need to unite and remove the status of oppressed minority to fatties. No, its not produce as much pollution as a small factory each year just by your farts because you ate too much. That burned the oil reserve of Somalia every month by moving in a tractor because you don't feel like taking a walk or using a bike.

Enough is enough. Save the earth, kill the whales.

Fatties have never been an oppressed minority.

This is a lie.

Two things:

1. You're not a liberal

2. I agree with you that feminists are major contributors to greenhouse gases

Instead of killing the whales and letting them go to waste, why don't we eat them? That's how the Eskimos have survived for thousands of years.

Let's assume an ideal person is 150 pounds, or 68 kilograms. Of that, around 35% is skeletal muscle. 8% is body fat. The other 57% is bones, fluid, and organ meat, none of which are particularly savory. This gives us 23.8 kg of muscle, 5.4 kg of fat, and 29.2 kg of edible meat total on our ideal human.

It is hard to find the caloric density of human meat for some reason, so I will approximate with beef. 1 kg of lean beef contains about 2,200 kcal. 1 kg of beef suet (raw fat) contains 8500 kcal. This means you can derive around 52300 kcal from muscle and 45900 kcal from fat, or for the sake of convenience about 100000 kcal total.

In the united states, however, the ideal human is a rare breed. Perhaps we limit our extirpation to only the 30% of Americans that are obese. The average American is 172 cm tall, meaning we can use this as a general gauge for BMI, assuming obesity affects people shorter than that equally as in taller people. This is not entirely true due to flaws in the BMI system, where taller people are more likely to be labelled obese, though it is the only reliable statistic that can be drawn from and yield useful data, so it will have to do for this purely hypothetical situation.

Citing this article, the following information can be used:

• 6.3% of the population has a BMI of >40
• 9.2% falls between 35 and 40 BMI
• 20.4% falls between 30 and 35 BMI

This accounts for the ~35% of the obese adult population in the United States. The function for this area of the distribution curve can be defined closely as f(x)=.00166x^2-.1303x+2.619 from a quadratic regression. The average value of this curve can be found by multiplying the integral of the function on the interval [30, 40] by 1/(40-30). This shows that the average person obese person in the US has a BMI of ~34.

A person of 172 cm with a BMI of 34 would weigh approximately 102 kg. Assuming they're not "big boned," the extra 32 kg is all fat. 32 kg of suet contains 272000 kcal. This added to the ideal meats means the average obese person in the US contains about 372000 kcal of usable meat.

This accounts for approximately 35% of the population. At around 320,000,000 people, this would mean 112000000 fatties would be butchered, yielding 4.2*10^13 kcal for the remaining 208,000,000 people to eat. If each person consumed 2500 kcal per day, the entire population could survive off the preserved meats of the obese for 80 days. This does not sound like much; indeed it is less than 3 months. Thus, sustaining the US population off of landwhale blubber is not practical.

You forgot to take in to account that most of the calories would also come from plant derived sources. This should extend the fattie meats by 2 or 3 times that estimate.

No, I'm trying to cut down on food consumption by eating exclusively whale meat. I suppose Flintstones vitamins could also be alloted to cut down on scurvy and beriberi, but the overall caloric gain of those would be negligible.

Isn't it possible we could just farm these fat fucks by sucking out fat from them every few months? They'd just get fat again anyway, and you could repurpose the fat for diesel or other purposes.

It's not like you'd have to keep them alive unnecessarily. Once it became inefficient to keep them alive, you could just kill them and harvest all the fat.

Think of all the biodiesel! Also, you'd improve humanity by getting rid of them.

Well, it takes food to get them fat, and part of the point of this is to solve issues with the food supply. It would be more efficient to feed a few twinkies to all the normal people than to stuff the fat fucks full of them. You're adding an entire trophic level by introducing the fat-farming stage as an intermediary. As a general rule of thumb, about 10% of energy passes between trophic levels. That means that 9 twinkies are lost for every twinkie unit of fat that you suck out of them. So no, not practical. It's much easier and 10x as efficient to grow corn for oil than it is to feed the corn to people to make oil. So it would be innefficient right from the beginning, leading to an immediate cleansing. Plus the people oil would have trans fat in it, and that's no good.

But we already have all these fat fucks.

so I will approximate with beef.

I've heard that pork is closer to human. Would you get different results if you swapped beef with pork?

Not really. Pork meat has just about the same caloric density as beef meat at 2300 kcal per kg. The difference is due to pork meat naturally being more fatty than beef, but the actual meat is more or less the same. I can't find calories for raw unprocessed pork fat since it isn't a common kitchen ingredient, but lard is about 9000 kcal per kg. This is comparable to beef tallow which is also 9000 kcal per kg, slightly higher than raw suet due to rendering. Given that, I think it is safe to assume that their unprocessed forms are also the same.
