 Peter Menzel/ASA / ASA, IND04.0011.xf1b The Shipra River flows through the holy city of Ujjain, in the central Indian state of Madhya Pradesh. Every 12 years, millions of devout Hindus celebrate the month-long festival of Kumbh Mela by bathing in the ShipraÕs holy waters. Hundreds of ashrams set up free cafeterias and dusty, sprawling camps that stretch for miles. Thousands of Hindu pilgrims file past the different groups on the way to and from the river and their own dusty camps. (Supporting image from the project Hungry Planet: What the World Eats.) |
 Peter Menzel/ASA / ASA, JAP95.0008.xxf1s Frozen tuna at the famed Tsujiki auction site, Tokyo, Japan. (From a photographic gallery of fish images, in Hungry Planet: What the World Eats, p. 205). /// About a third of humankind lives within 50 miles of a coast, as Carl Safina notes in his essay in the book Hungry Planet: What the World Eats (p. 202-203). Hundreds of millions more have their homes near rivers and lakes. Is there a large or medium-size city anywhere on earth without a fishmonger? Surely not. Dieticians urge people to eat even more fishÑseafood, they believe, is not only uniquely delicious, but uniquely healthy. Unfortunately, Homo sapiensÕ love for the fruits of the sea is imperiling aquatic ecosystems everywhere. The abundance celebrated in these images, ecologists warn, may not survive this century. |
 Peter Menzel/ASA / ASA, Mex.meb.47.xsA mother sits with her daughters in the market in Taxco, a colonial silver mining town sixty miles southwest of Mexico City, Mexico. She is selling bags of the edible iodine-rich flying stinkbug, the jumil (Euchistus taxcoensis). The jumil is rich in iodine and consuming them prevents diseases resulting from iodine deficiency like goiters and thyroid problems. Image from the book project Man Eating Bugs: The Art and Science of Eating Insects by Peter Menzel and Faith D’Aluisio (Material World Books / Ten Speed Press). Before fast food, farms, or even wild game, insects fed prehistoric hunter-gatherers all over the world. Man Eating Bugs is a quest to learn about food preferences from native people in 13 countries who still eat insects. |
