If you haven’t seen it yet there is hamburger that was grown
from cow stem cells, tasting
here. While this is unsettling and disturbing on one level there are huge
ramifications if the price can be brought down.

Imagine a world where we didn’t have to raise so many cows
for slaughter. There wouldn’t be the huge methane gas being belched and farted
into the air every day. There would be no more factory farms. And there would
be no more rain forests getting burned down to plant grain and soybeans to feed
them. In fact the last two can be fed to the hungry people instead of to cows
so rich countries can eat them.
It’s still a long way off, but if this could be combined
with more efficient building and cars, renewable energy, and reusing everything
we could, we’d have climate change on the ropes.
Thoughts?
