Edible Insects as a Food Solution — Still Think It’s “Not My Concern”?

An introduction to high-protein, low-impact edible insects and DeKulum — a cushioning material maker that reuses waste cardboard — offering practical, starter-friendly steps toward a sustainable shift in food and packaging.

Edible Insects as a Food Solution — Still Think It’s “Not My Concern”?

Why insects?

Insects account for roughly 70% of animal species on Earth — some even say, “The Earth belongs to insects; humans are the tenants.” With over a million identified species, the resource potential is enormous.

Low impact, high nutrition

Compared to livestock, insects emit far fewer greenhouse gases and require minimal land and water. By weight, many species offer protein levels comparable to or exceeding beef, making them a compelling option for health-conscious diets.

What if you just swapped one meal?

If 8 billion people replaced just 1 of their “9 meals over 3 days” with insect-based or complete nutrition foods, the global impact would be significant. It’s natural to find the idea of “eating whole insects” intimidating. But when processed into powders for cookies, drinks, tablets, or gummies, the visual barrier drops dramatically. Why not start with an easy, approachable format?

Swap just one meal

Small actions you can start today

We questioned the marine environmental cycle and launched a project to drive change by replacing just one “thing.”

Pick up litter, reduce leftovers, switch off power more often — even small actions, multiplied by 8 billion, can create planetary-scale momentum. We’ve already started replacing that “one thing” and setting it in motion. Like releasing fry into the sea, we believe small acts can grow into a powerful current.

The DeKulum cushioning material maker reuses waste cardboard to produce eco-friendly cushioning. It significantly reduces the use of disposable plastic cushioning, helping cut waste and make better use of resources. Strengthening environmental initiatives both improves corporate image and contributes to a more sustainable society.
