Turning petroleum into food!
Turning petroleum into food!
The global food crisis demands that we recycle old ideas.

Biodegradation of petroleum via fermentation.
Liu, D
Biotechnology (pp. 103-134)
1985
Cheremisinoff PN and Ouellette RP (Eds)
The growth of microorganisms on petroleum hydrocarbons has received
considerably attention because of the possibility of producing
single-cell-protein from petroleum for animal feed or human food uses.
Moreover, the prospects of utilizing hydrocarbon-degrading microorganisms
for the treatment of refinery waste as well as for the clean-up of oil spill
have promoted research endeavors in various aspects of petroleum
biodegradation. Because of the voluminous research on the subject of
petroleum biodegradation, no attempt will be made to carry out an exhaustive
search and review of all the literature. Instead, this chapter will focus on
the practical aspects of petroleum biodegradation and the related processes.
The literature data will be presented in 12 tables and it is hoped that this
approach will assist in coalescing the diverse subjects into a coherent
framework, which will be useful to scientists and engineers in the field of
petroleum fermentation.
///
The current craze to turn food stock into fuel is evocative of some kinds of
metabolic disregulation. Enzymatic evolution eliminated such useless cycles
eons ago. Mother Gaia is surely displeased with the current generation of
environmentalists. Maybe she will cleanse the earth with fire or ice, this
time.

What the earth needs is a way to turn people into oil.
Please feed my SUV.

The cycle is almost complete. Remember "Soylent Green" starring Charlatan
Heston? The technology to turn people into food is now an "emergent
technology".

Why not just recycle SUV's into guns? That would solve the overpopulation
problem. I presume there is no shotage of bullets. Am I wrong?

NO! You have all wrong. Guns don't kill people, people kill people.
The problem with your thesis that guns can be used as a means of
population contol is that there is grave planetary shortage of cold
blooded killers. The only hope to control population is birth control.
The only acceptable contraception is the pill. Have you ever tried to
get it up or keep it up inside a rubber? The problem with chemical
contraception is that there is a grave planetary shortage of chemists
and pharamceutical companies. Also there is way to much regulation of
the pharmaceutical industry, inhibiting brave chemists from producing
drugs for the needy population of the world. WTO be damned!

Seems to be working so far...
The chief hindrance to population control is organized religion.
All major religions oppose birth control. It's bad for recruitment and
political power.

Generally speaking, people with guns.
And, of course, it's not guns that kill people.
It's bullets! Go ahead and give everybody a gun,
just lock up all the bullets!

There's a whole book on this subject.
Synthetic Food

London: John Murray, 1970

This suggests a new pinnacle of environmental achievement: turning
petroleum into biomass, converting that into petroleum and that in
turn back into biomass...etc unto infinity.
Each stage of the process would of course be heavily subsidized by tax-
payers, and it could continue forever without producing anything of
value, save an inelegant thermodynamic downward spiral.
