JAPAN, December 19, 2017 (YouTube, by Benoy Behi): More than 80% of Japanese Gods are originally from India. Buddhists in Japan have been praying to Hindu Gods as well for many centuries. What seems to be hidden in plain site are the Hindu Gods being worshipped under aliases. Deities such as Lakshmi, Saraswati, Ganesha & Kubera have melted into Japanese culture with different names and characteristics. One exception seems to be Ganesha, who is called Kangiten, who continues to hold His power of removing obstacles. Short video at ”source”.<\/p>\n

Carrying Capacity of U.S. Agricultural Land: Ten Diet Scenarios<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n

UNITED STATES, December 29, 2017 (Elementa Science): Strategies for environmental sustainability and global food security must account for dietary change. Using a biophysical simulation model we calculated human carrying capacity under ten diet scenarios. The scenarios included two reference diets based on actual consumption and eight ”Healthy Diet” scenarios that complied with nutritional recommendations but varied in the level of meat content. We considered the U.S. agricultural land base and accounted for losses, processing conversions, livestock feed needs, suitability of land for crops or grazing, and land productivity. Carrying capacity varied from 402 to 807 million persons; 1.3 to 2.6 times the 2010 U.S. population. Carrying capacity was generally higher for scenarios with less meat and highest for the lacto-vegetarian diet. However, the carrying capacity of the vegan diet was lower than two of the healthy omnivore diet scenarios.<\/p>\n

Dietary change has been proposed as part of a strategy to ensure future food security for a growing world population while addressing environmental challenges associated with agricultural production. The findings of this study support the idea that dietary change towards plant-based diets has significant potential to reduce the agricultural land requirements of U.S. consumers and increase the carrying capacity of U.S. agricultural resources. Future work is needed to determine the best way to share this productive bounty with the rest of the world, but potential for dietary change to influence land requirements and carrying capacity is clear. Diet composition matters. Indeed, we demonstrate that under a range of land use conditions, diets with low to modest amounts of meat outperform a vegan diet, and vegetarian diets including dairy products performed best overall.<\/p>\n
