Make Room! Make Room!
is a 1966 science fiction novel written by Harry Harrison exploring the consequences of both unchecked population growth on society and the hoarding of resources by a wealthy minority.[1] It was originally serialized in Impulse magazine.
Make Room! Make Room! is set in an overpopulated New York City in 1999 (33 years after the time of writing). 30-year-old Police Detective Andy Rusch lives in half a room, sharing it with Sol, a retired engineer who has adapted a bicycle to generate power for an old television set and a refrigerator.
Author Harry Harrison claimed, “The idea came from an Indian I met after the war, in 1946. He told me, ‘Overpopulation is the big problem coming up in the world’ (nobody had ever heard of it in those days) and he said, ‘Want to make a lot of money, Harry? You have to import rubber contraceptives to India.’ I didn’t mind making money, but I didn’t want to be the rubber king of India!”
Soylent Green the movie is very different from the source material, Make Room! Make Room!
Harrison was contractually denied control over the screenplay and was not told during negotiations that Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer was buying the film rights
The book has a lot of preaching about contraception and overpopulation.
While the book refers to “soylent steaks” (made from soy and lentil), it makes no reference to “Soylent Green”, the processed food rations depicted in the film.
In early 1970, as a result of heightened public concerns about deteriorating city air, natural areas littered with debris, and urban water supplies contaminated with dangerous impurities, President Richard Nixon presented the House and Senate a groundbreaking 37-point message on the environment.
These points included:
- requesting four billion dollars for the improvement of water treatment facilities;
- asking for national air quality standards and stringent guidelines to lower motor vehicle emissions;
- launching federally-funded research to reduce automobile pollution;
- ordering a clean-up of federal facilities that had fouled air and water;
- seeking legislation to end the dumping of wastes into the Great Lakes;
- proposing a tax on lead additives in gasoline;
- forwarding to Congress a plan to tighten safeguards on the seaborne transportation of oil; and
- approving a National Contingency Plan for the treatment of oil spills.
After conducting hearings during that summer, the House and Senate approved the proposal. The agency’s first Administrator, William Ruckelshaus, took the oath of office on December 4, 1970, and thus the Environmental Protection Agency was born.
According to Breakthrough.com “ For moviegoers in 1973, these themes would have been familiar. Books such as Paul R. Ehrlich’s 1968 The Population Bomb warned of a population explosion in the 1970s and 1980s that would result in famine. Indeed, William and Paul Paddock’s Famine 1975!—published in 1967—called for a “triage” system where starving nations deemed hopeless, including Egypt and India, would be denied food aid from the few food-surplus nations such as the United States.”
Captain Kirk weighs in on over population supporting sterilization of a population. From the 3rd season episode of Star Trek called the Mark Of Gideon. Aired in 1969.
Club of Rome

The Club of Rome is a nonprofit, informal organization of intellectuals and business leaders whose goal is a critical discussion of pressing global issues. The Club of Rome was founded in 1968 at Accademia dei Lincei in Rome, Italy. It consists of one hundred full members selected from current and former heads of state and government, UN administrators, high-level politicians and government officials, diplomats, scientists, economists, and business leaders from around the globe.

It stimulated considerable public attention in 1972 with the first report to the Club of Rome, The Limits to Growth.
The Limits to Growth is basis for much of the fearmongering from environmental groups.
According to reason.com : “The 1972 report projected that exponential consumption would deplete important nonrenewable resources such as oil, natural gas, copper, tin, and lead before the year 2000. That didn’t happen.”
The Club of Rome stimulated considerable public attention with the first report to the club, The Limits to Growth. Published in 1972, its computer simulations suggested that economic growth could not continue indefinitely because of resource depletion.

The book Population Bomb by Paul Erhlich was published in 1968.
The book is infamous for its alarmist tone.
Early editions of The Population Bomb began with the statement:
“The battle to feed all of humanity is over. In the 1970s hundreds of millions of people will starve to death in spite of any crash programs embarked upon now. At this late date nothing can prevent a substantial increase in the world death rate…”
The Ehrlichs argue that as the existing population was not being fed adequately, and as it was growing rapidly, it was unreasonable to expect sufficient improvements in food production to feed everyone. They further argued that the growing population placed escalating strains on all aspects of the natural world. “What needs to be done?” they wrote, “We must rapidly bring the world population under control, reducing the growth rate to zero or making it negative. Conscious regulation of human numbers must be achieved. Simultaneously we must, at least temporarily, greatly increase our food production.”
POPULATION GROWTH RATES
Around the time Soylent Green came out the birth rate in the USA was already below replacement levels. Almost all of the developed world now has birth rates below replacement level, the replacement level considered to be 2.1

The old alarmist rhetoric about climate and over population has led to wild baseless claims from the “experts”.

Greta Thunberg deleted this tweet from 2018. Has she come forward yet with the name of that climate scientist?
“We’re still putting 162 million tons into it [the atmosphere] every single day, and the accumulated amount is now trapping as much extra heat as would be released by 600,000 Hiroshima-class atomic bombs exploding every single day on the earth. That’s what’s boiling the oceans, creating these atmospheric rivers and rain bombs, and sucking the moisture out of the land and creating the droughts and melting the ice and raising the sea level and causing these waves of climate refugees, predicted to reach one billion in this century.”

Making the Movie
Richard Fleischer
was born to a Jewish family[1] in Brooklyn on Dec 8 , 1917, the son of Essie (née Goldstein) and animator/producer Max Fleischer, a native of Kraków, Poland.[5] After graduating from Brown University, he went to Yale School of Drama, where he met his future wife, Mary Dickson.
Fleischer served in the U.S. Army during World War II.[7][8] His film career began in 1942 at the RKO studio, directing shorts, documentaries, and compilations of forgotten silent features, which he called “Flicker Flashbacks”. He won an Academy Award as producer of the 1947 documentary Design for Death, co-written by Theodor Geisel (later known as Dr. Seuss), which examined the cultural forces that led to Japan’s imperial expansion through World War II.
Fleischer was chosen by Walt Disney – his father’s former rival as a cartoon producer – to direct 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea (1954) starring Kirk Douglas. While in the film’s post-production phase, Fleischer received an offer from Dore Schary at MGM to direct Bad Day at Black Rock, but had to turn it down because of the work still required on Leagues.
Fox offered him North to Alaska (1960) with John Wayne, which Fleischer originally agreed to do, but withdrew when he was unhappy with the script.
Fleischer then signed a contract with Dino De Laurentiis to make Barabbas (1961). After this, he and De Laurentiis announced a series of projects, including Lanny Budd (from a novel by Upton Sinclair), Don Camillo, Salvatore Guliano, Dark Angel and Sacco and Vanzetti (from a script by Edward Anhalt), but none were made.
Richard Zanuck had become head of production at Fox and offered Fleischer Fantastic Voyage (1966). It was a success and revived his Hollywood career.
He was entrusted with Fox’s big “roadshow” musical of 1967, Doctor Dolittle (1967), with Rex Harrison. It failed to break even. Most acclaimed was The Boston Strangler (1968), with Tony Curtis.
Che! (1969), a biopic of Che Guevara that starred Omar Sharif, was an expensive flop, as was Tora! Tora! Tora! (1970), an account of the World War II Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. It was his last film for 20th Century Fox.
The filming of Soylent Green (1973), which he directed, was suspended for a week because of the death of his father Max Fleischer.
Fleischer was reunited with De Laurentiis for the successful though controversial Mandingo (1975).
Fleischer earned a reputation as a reliable journeyman and “replacement director”, filling in when a project’s original director was fired by a producer for creative differences. These included John Huston in The Last Run and Michael Campus for Mandingo.
Fleischer was hired to replace Richard Sarafian on Ashanti (1979), starring Michael Caine, which turned out to be a flop. He received another call to replace a director, in this case Sidney J. Furie, on The Jazz Singer (1980), an unsuccessful attempt to make a film star out of Neil Diamond.
Richard Fleischer won a golden Raspberry for The Jazz Singer (1981) He made three more for De Laurentiis: Amityville 3-D (1983), Conan the Destroyer (1984) and Red Sonja (1985). The latter two were adaptations of Robert E. Howard‘s Hyborian Age stories, both starring Arnold Schwarzenegger.
Notable Richard Fleischer Films:




Stanley R. Greenberg
(1927-2002)
was an American playwright and screenwriter. He was an important pioneer in the format of docudrama.[1][2]
He was born in Chicago, served in World War II and graduated from Brown University. He got his start in television writing for the series The Defenders and The Nurses.
Even though Harry Harrison had zero input on the screenplay, he shared an award nomination with Stanley Greenberg for Best Dramatic Presentation in The Hugo Awards and also shared a win forThe Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America.
Stanley Greenberg was nominated for an Emmy Award in 1975 for the Television docudrama The Missles of October.
the current situation


Generally recognized as safe (GRAS) is a United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) designation that a chemical or substance added to food is considered safe by experts under the conditions of its intended use.
An ingredient with a GRAS designation is exempted from the usual Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA) food additive tolerance requirements.[2] The concept of food additives being “generally recognized as safe” was first described in the Food Additives Amendment of 1958, and all additives introduced after this time had to be evaluated by new standards.[1][3] The FDA list of GRAS notices is updated approximately each month, as of 2021.
You can get a G.R.A.S. Designation 2 ways
- The FDA can review submitted documents and approve or disapprove
- Or you can “self affirm” – meaning the food producer takes all of the responsibility of the product they are selling.
As of 2021 955 ingredients have been filed with the FDA
Here is the list
At a quick glance here are some of my favorites
- Aluminum salts
- used in deodorants, vaccine adjuvants, and to make sulfuric acid
- Hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose
- used to make bread rise, tile adhesives, and detergents
- Propylene glycol
- sweeteners also used to make polymers, vape juice, and anti freeze
The FDA can also explicitly withdraw the GRAS classification, as it did for trans fat in 2015
In both cases the only thing protecting the consumer are lawsuits.
Here are some industrial methods and waste used in common foods.
Collagen Plastic casing for sausages. The general rule; if your sausage is straight, it’s most likely plastic.
Wood shavings in your cheese salad dressing, and ice cream to thicken it without adding calories or fat. Cellulose is fibrous, which is why it appears in so many high-fiber “healthy” snacks and breakfast cereals
Shellac pill coatings, candy, coffee beans to make hard shells
Polydimethylsiloxane this is the same thing as Silly Putty. You can find this additive in most fast food and fountain drinks. It can also be used in caulks and adhesives
Ammonia – We know ammonia as the toxic chemical used to clean stuff and kill germs when you’re tidying up around the house. But here, it’s the toxic chemical to get rid of the germs in your meat. Companies spray meat with ammonia to kill bacteria before packaging, which, as a result, makes “pink slime.” Um, gross.
Silicon Dioxide – Aka Sand . It is found mostly in powdered foods to absorb any clump forming moisture
Castoreum – This fancy shmancy word is usually marked on the label as “natural flavoring.” But surprisingly, it’s actually beaver anal gland secretions. Used to flavor food (and in perfumes, too), these glands are located near the beaver’s butt. Sometimes, it includes the beaver’s urine. And under the guise of “natural flavoring,” who even knows what foods it’s used in
Phthalates aren’t usually on the label because there’s no label on produce; no warning about what you’re eating. Bite into your produce like you might bite into a vinyl shower curtain or suck on your shampoo – it’s basically all the same. Phthalates are plasticizing chemicals you can find in most fruits and vegetables, as some pesticides contain the chemicals.
Potassium bromate, a potent oxidizer that helps bread rise, has been linked to kidney and thyroid cancers in rodents.
Azodicarbonamide (ACA), a chemical that forms bubbles in foams and plastics like vinyl, is used to bleach and leaven dough
They’re full of artificial colors, flavors and sweeteners. They’re stabilized with trans fats, chemical preservatives and then packaged in plastics that have been known to cause cancer and birth defects.
The american diet consists of more sugar and chemicals like glyphosate than in other countries

We are ingesting very low levels of glyphosate in most of our foods which may contribute to the development of illness. On March 20, 2015, the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC)–the specialized cancer agency of the World Health Organization–classified glyphosate as probably carcinogenic to humans (Group 2A). Glyphosate also affects our immune system and the healthy bacteria in our gut.
Different allowable daily intake levels of glyphosate in the European Union as compared to the United States. Reproduced with permission from https://s3.amazonaws.com/media.fooddemocracynow.org/images/FDN_Glyphosate_FoodTesting_Report_p2016.pdf
Read the article Glyphosate: Unsafe on any plate: Alarming levels of Monstao’s gyphosate found in popular American foods. It describes the scientific evidence that at even at ultra-low levels of glyphosate e.g. 0.1 parts per billions (ppb) harm to human health could begin and how much of the foods contain glyphosate. The Executive Summary is reproduced with permission below:
Industrial food allows for a certain percentage of defects like. Insect parts, Rodent poop, Mold, rodent hair. Mostly because it is an impossible task to keep vermin out of the large food processing plants. For that reason they use different chemicals to counteract those defects.
Vaccines
The recommended vaccine schedule does mean that all meat has been vaccinated to this extent.
Chickens have 11+ vaccines with a 3 month booster for the last one.

The meat industry is also cursed with heavy antibiotic usage. US beef is given 9x the dosage as UK beef.
Chlorinated chicken
Just like beef has an ammonia treatment, chickens are treated with antimicrobial rinses in order to remove harmful bacteria. These rinses are often referred to as Pathogen Reduction Treatments (PRTs) in the US.
After the birds are slaughtered and the carcass eviscerated, they are examined and then undergo a “final washing procedure”, where chemicals are applied as a spray or wash on the processing line, “or as an addition to the water used to lower the carcass temperature”.
all this is to help manage pathogens like salmonella and campylobacter and protect consumers from infections.
According to a report from the Adam Smith Institute (which argues in favour of allowing PRTs), “immersing poultry meat in chlorine dioxide solution of the strength used in the United States reduces prevalence of salmonella from 14% in controls to 2%. EU chicken samples typically have 15-20% salmonella.”

Growth hormones
Use of growth hormone that can triple beef yield are linked to insulin-like growth factor (IGF). Taking dairy cattle as an example again, rBGH treated cows can contain up to 10x’s more IGF than non-hormone treated cattle.
Insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) are essential for growth and survival that suppress apoptosis and promote cell cycle progression, angiogenesis, and metastatic activities in various cancers
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4383470/
Whatever your opinion is of vaccines and antibiotics, you can’t argue that the conditions that the meat industry has found itself in after 100 years of “more efficient food through science” has made our food sick, and as it goes, You are what you eat.

Ouroboros steak company
In 2020 Orkan Telhan, an artist and associate professor of fine arts at the Stuart Weitzman School of Design at the University of Pennsylvania, spent the last year imagining how climate change might impact the future of food consumption. He collaborated with scientists to create a project that included 3-D printed pancakes, bioengineered bread and genetically-modified salmon. But it was their provocative, and less appetizing, development of what they call “Ouroboros Steak,” meat cultivated from human cells and expired blood, that challenged the sustainability practices of the nascent cellular agriculture industry, which develops lab-grown products from existing cell cultures.
Mr. Telhan added, “It was a misinterpretation that became politicized in all the wrong ways because humans eating each other is a taboo topic.”
Named after the ancient symbol of a snake eating its own tail, “Ouroboros Steak” examines, but does not promote, auto-cannibalism as a satirical take on the increasing demand for meat products around the world, which scientists have warned will likely contribute to carbon emissions and reduced biodiversity. Because the stem cells used to make the meat need to be harvested from placentas, so livestock will be needed anyway.
Bitelabs
is a 2014 market research based company.
They’re hoping to get celebrities like James Franco, Ellen DeGeneres, Jennifer Lawrence, and Kanye West on board to donate tissue samples that will eventually become salami.
BiteLabs told The Los Angeles Times that its primary goal is to “provoke discussion and debate around topics of bioethics and celebrity culture,” but also plainly stated that they’re gauging market interest for an actual lab-grown celebrity salami project. “We see inefficiencies, environmental hazards, and ethical problems in the world’s food production and distribution. There are exciting opportunities to disrupt these industries while opening new ways to consume celebrity culture.”
Kevin told Motherboard that, “The product is indeed salami,” and that each one will have about 30 percent celebrity meat and 40 percent lab-grown animal meats along with fat and spices. This is getting intense. More updates as we get them.
No action on line since 2018.

Current day
Some studies get pretty hyperbolic some fear that overpopulation may bring about a Soylent Green situation. Others say that eating people is a conceivable way to fight climate change. And unlike the art projects that tried to get a conversation started, there are studies are researching the feasibility of lab grown meat.

According to the WEF the food systems – growing food and feed, making and transporting food, cooking, eating and throwing food away – accounts for just under a third of greenhouse gas emissions, food alone has the potential to use up the entire Paris agreement’s carbon budget.
Dietary advice suggests 500g (Or three 6oz burgers per week) per person per week is healthy meat consumption = 26 kg per year..
Tim Lang, a Professor of Food Policy at City University in London, has eloquently put it: “the rich need to eat less, and differently, so the poor can eat more and differently”.
In the US, Biden laid out his plan to end hunger in the US.

Joel Salatin raises livestock on his Polyface Farm in Swoope, Virginia, in the Shenandoah Valley. Meat from the farm is sold by direct marketing to consumers and restaurants.
Salatin’s philosophy of farming emphasizes healthy grass on which animals can thrive in a symbiotic cycle of feeding. Cows are moved from one pasture to another rather than being centrally corn fed. Chickens in portable coops are moved in behind them, where they dig through the cow dung to eat protein-rich fly larvae while further fertilizing the field with their droppings. He is just looking totally afresh at how to maximize production in an integrated system on a holistic farm. He’s just totally innovative.

In 2010, Finley dug up a strip of land between his house and the street and started planting fruits and vegetables. It was illegal to plant these on the land between the sidewalk and curb but he got the city of Los Angeles to change the law. The “Residential Parkway Landscaping Guidelines” were changed to end fines for vegetable gardens within the strip owned by the city.
In early 2013, Finley gave a TED talk on his progress as a “guerrilla gardener,” the dangers of food deserts, and the potential for his program to improve quality of life. He said in the talk, “If kids grow kale, kids eat kale; if they grow tomatoes, they eat tomatoes.” The talk has received over three million views on the TED web site, and attracted attention from numerous celebrities and collaboration proposals from corporations.
After his TED talk, Finley developed a gardening training facility under the name of The Ron Finley Project in South Central Los Angeles. His guerilla gardening efforts have had modest success in persuading city officials to cooperate, but remain officially illegal under city code. In 2016, The Ron Finley Project was told they had to buy the property hosting their garden for $500,000, or it would be shut down. A fundraising campaign ensued. The campaign got the attention of natural food companies, and the original $500,000 goal was surpassed.
