Meat-growing technology is going to change the world a lot. More usable land. More land for nature. Less climate change. Less water usage. Less animal cruelty. Trillion-dollar industry with profits to be had.https://twitter.com/Philip_Salter/status/965621704386105344 …
Lab meat could be the biggest ethical advance in human history since the abolition of slavery. Billions upon billions of sentient animals no longer suffering in factory farms. A trillion fish a year no longer suffocating to death in drag nets.

Well, for meat. But I imagine they’ll still be factory farms for milk and eggs.

So, what happens to all the cows? If they’ll have no value, do we just eliminate that species?

There are a lot fewer horses now than a century ago. There'd still be cows, but they'd be free range animals in their own right.

The ppl I have spoken to who know a bit about the technology involved are very skeptical about scalability.

Does that mean it's not worth trying?

Nobody trying to eat lab meat. People don't even want pesticides used on their food

Insect farming for protein is up and coming as well. It's a really exciting time.

in the mean time a commercialisation of mini-livestock, edible insects could be the way to go. Incredible nutritional value, they do not posses pain receptors like humans or other animals and they have much less environmental impact. https://steemit.com/food/@espressodopio/safe-the-world-bug-by-bug …
