Net Zero advocates propose ticks to induce red meat allergy as climate solution sparking backlash
08/14/2025 / By Willow Tohi



Two U.S. academics propose spreading lone star ticks to induce alpha-gal syndrome (AGS), a red meat allergy, as a climate strategy.

AGS triggers severe allergic reactions, including anaphylaxis, via tick-borne alpha-gal molecules.

AGS now affects up to 450,000 Americans, with cases rising due to tick expansion northward.

CDC warns the syndrome can lead to fatal reactions via medications, not just food.

Critics decry the proposal as reckless, ignoring risks of severe health consequences.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

The last I heard, we were supposed to be eating ticks, making new recipes.  Like Tick Upside down cake, or Tick balls and spaghetti, Refried ticks, etc. :whistle:
