I’m Umberto Diecinove, I am a documentary photographer and a filmmaker. And – for a while now – I’ve been investigating the potential role of insects in the solution of some of the global challenges we’re currently facing.
To do this, I’ve been traveling around the world, taking photographs and talking to world experts, visionary entrepreneurs, activists and people working in the field.
Welcome to Get the Bug Podcast, where you can listen to the conversations I recorded during my journey.
Farming insects could reduce the agriculture need for land and overfishing in the oceans, but also lower greenhouse emissions and help smallholder farmers, in developing economies, to depend less on expensive imported feed.
So… what if insects are the next game changers?
Join me for this insightful conversation on the potential of insects to make the world a better place, and the lessons we can learn from nature to build a more sustainable future for generations to come.

Which is the relation between insecticides and insect as feed and food? Is industry running ahead of the research? What a flexiterian is? What about Kenya and Black Soldier Fly farming? And (ghost questions): every tomato sauce makes your spaghetti “bolognese?”, what about reducing meat consumption and insects as food?
