Most 'meat' in 2040 will not come from dead animals, says report
- Thread starter Sqrt

Lab grown meat makes economic and life sustainable sense
The meat industry barely makes margins as it is with how much land and inefficiency it has. Only raw demand has propped it up for so long
You crack into that with lab meat and impossible burgers and problem solved. We all benefit

Yeah I can see it. It's going to be kinda weird being the last real generation that eats actual meat though, lol. I dunno about 2040, but 2050, sure.
if it tastes as good and is similar in price I'm ready for it.
I doubt they will be able to replicate a well marbled steak for a long time, but a ground burger or sausage? Sure gimmie that lab grown abomination of science.

I was confused for a second because I thought this meant people for some reason were gonna start biting into cows and pigs like Ozzy bit into that bat's head.
That's been the way forward for a while, now that lab-grown meat is here.
We may still hit a tipping point but I think we can avert the worst of what climate change could bring. The real question is power production. Our first step should be a line in the sand around the world: no new coal or natural gas plants.

Hey meat slaughter from a family farm that doesnt engage in large scale industrial production is acceptable to me
Since they would likely treat their individual animals better and slaughter humanely
Read the Fair Life milk debacle to see just how terrible mass produced animal products are with a recent example
It is inevitable. I wonder how many Republicunts will use this is a scare tactic to agitate their 'Merican burger eating base. Many Americans/MAGA cunts construct their identity around a few things including guns and beef. Remember the push back to Green New Deal by stating that they are coming after your cows?
I am going to love to see those 'merican pieces of shit eat dirt and synthetic meat in time. LOVE it.

Once they get the process down it will be indistinguishable but yeah I know what you meant
The idea as it scales and moves "down market" the price will go down
But to be honest meat should be expensive relative to vegetables or grains. Seeing steaks or chicken so cheap sometimes leaves me extremely unsettled.
Not half as scary as the reality of animals being slaughtered by the billions in horrible ways.
they love getting lied to by big rich republicans so if big corporations see the value in the transition they can just sell lab grown meat as the real deal and market away the scaryness of it
Mass produced meat is literally so costly and in efficient that I wouldn't be surprised to see companies jump ship just for piece of mind and a piece of a market that has huge growth potential
Sometimes technology scores a win just by aligning us with our worst impulses. In our current society greed should hopefully win out over cruelty and turn this negative into a positive
But impossible and beyond are being sold all over the country in various restaurants and fast food joints. The ball is rolling, people are trying it and finding out it taste just fine
The farmers aren't going to lie down and take it. Using antibiotics in farming has shown to cultivate antibiotic resistant microbes, but farmers fought tooth and nail to keep the antibiotics to increase their profits.
Now a product threatens to eliminate their industry entirely, not just a few chickens.
Too bad? We may reach a future where farming is a recreational lifestyle and all food production is automated
Hell farmers now do less than half the labors they used to thanks to technology and now they are gonna reject it?
If they were smart they would invest and get in on the grounf floor and join the club.
