Alarmist Paul Ehrlich Predicts Need to ‘Eat the Bodies of Your Dead’

Alarmist Paul Ehrlich Predicts Need to ‘Eat the Bodies of Your Dead’ | NewsBusters:
"The zombie apocalypse is nigh!
The zombie apocalypse is nigh!
Well, no it isn’t.
In fact, it’s probably as likely to occur as the rest of Paul Ehrlich’s predictions.
Ehrlich, a Stanford University biologist famous for his widely debunked book “The Population Bomb,” doubled down on his climate change and overpopulation fear-mongering with HuffPost Live on May 21. Ehrlich warned host Josh Zepps that the dangers of overpopulation are growing, blaming Republicans and the media for failing to take action.
While hawking a new book called “Hope On Earth,” Ehrlich’s co-author Michael Tobias praised Ehrlich’s older, outrageously wrong predictions and said they underestimated the problem.
Ehrlich, after falsely predicting  human “oblivion” 46 years ago, told Zepps humans must soon begin contemplating “eat[ing] the bodies of your dead” after resources are depleted (fava beans and a nice Chianti optional, apparently)."
