In Merriam Webster “Choke out” is defined as “: to say (something) with difficulty because of strong emotion”. Only in its “Recent Examples on the Web” there’s a sentence with similar meaning. Perhaps because “choke out” is recently being used in this context and it is showcasing the ever evolving nature of languages. Thanks BBC for updating us 🙏🏻

My summary while listening
When animals or plants are introduced to a new area, they can be dangerous to existing wildlife. One of the simplest ways to deal with invasive species is to eat them. In this program, we'll be hearing about initiatives in the UK and Belize that they are trying to get people to improve things using their stomachs.
According to Myra Abubi, Japanese knotweed is an extremely invasive plant that arrived in Europe from Japan over a century ago. This superweed does not just grow fast, it has root systems that are strong and resilient that they can withstand molten lava, choke out surrounding plants, and cause a lot of damage to buildings.
Also, from Marisol Amaya's viewpoint, with a big campaign slogan "Eat the lion", they got renowned chefs to prepare it in exotic ways to raise awareness that eating lionfish was both tasty and helping the environment. We have developed awareness for the government to purchase it. Then, we had a lot of outreach trying to show fisheries, and the general public how to remove the spine that allows them to actually eat the meat from the fish.

Today's content is interesting for me as a fisheries student 🫠
I was surprised to learn that Japanese knotweed is considered an invasive species, as it’s just a common plant in Japan. I’m curious about how one can incorporate it into their diet
Keanu Reeves is a well-known actor and renowned for his behaviors and talents. He had to faced and coped with difficulties in his hard times but he was resilient and overcome them.
Should we eat humans then? 🤔
Very soon we will otherwise there are always people who will stand and claim that their rights are not taking for consideration as for example useless LGBT community...
@@SaloestAeslinaydu Considering that the consideration of the otherwise oriented does not imply hungriness with an eye towards the counter-oriented, the only danger could come out of those whose orientation is variable, with a high index of variance, and is subject to the time of the day and to the paths of the celestial bodies, or, in simpler words, those that are not aware of "All you need is love" (no link since I don't know if comments with links are filtered out). There was a case where one of those who were not aware (of "All you need is love") tried to eat himself. And at the funeral, of what remained of him, nobody, neither single of lgbt, felt hungry.
You mean human are invasive species?
Good question
