I have seen very little about lab grown meat’s carbon footprint and I would really like to know what it is because for all I know, it could be even worse than farmed meat.
I think the main issue is that, currently, there’s not even any idea about how much the tech can scale due to possible issues with growing the cells in larger and larger vats. It takes a lot of money to make the things, and thus far nobody’s really tried to make the stuff on a scale large enough for mass production.
I’m all for it if it works, but we won’t know if it does until they actually do it.
Can’t wait for lab grown meat
Lab grown bugs would be more useful. Maybe less popular though.
Man-made horrors beyond my comprehension

Edit: Apparently, it very well could be. https://www.ucdavis.edu/food/news/lab-grown-meat-carbon-footprint-worse-beef
