It was joyous to see the little autistic girl looking so happy at the end.I do often wonder, and this documentary made me wonder it again: has the Western world backed itself into a corner, diet-wise? Largely because of population size.In the same way we've evolved a system whereby we are dependent on road networks for supplies. If every mechanised vehicle stopped working overnight, people start dying very quickly.Equally, what would happen if, overnight, everyone only ate meat and veg?I wonder if supply could meet demand, and what that would take. How much of the industrialisation of food production is driven by population size? How easy would it be to feed the population of the UK on just meat and veg? I don't know, presumably this has been assessed by someone in some study somewhere <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
