I watched a seminar about the production of cultivated meat without killing cows. Today, a biopsy of cells the size of a peppercorn is taken from a cow. From this sample up to 80,000 hamburgers can be grown under lab conditions more humanly and with less environmental impact than tradition farming. It’s done in what looks like those giant tanks that beer gets brewed in. The grown meat is identical to that of a killed cow. Plus it can be made into any steak-like shape using 3D printing technology. With the world population expected to reach 10 billion by 2050, increasing our current animal slaughter is beyond unsustainable. If people can’t alter their eating habits, then alternatives like this will have to do. Scientists see the environmental disaster looming and are desperate to make alrenatives. I won’t eat this stuff but hopefully meat addicts will.
