Cultured
In Tel Aviv, at a new restaurant called The Chicken, you can order a meal that has been grown from cells in a bioreactor on a plot next door. The long-heralded revolution of cultured meat – also known as cellular agriculture or lab-grown meat – is about to take off. The global meat market exceeds $330 billion and is a major cause of climate change, deforestation, chemical pollution, water stress and animal cruelty. Cultured meat removes those impacts. When fully operational, a cultured meat factory will be able to harvest half its total volume every day, forever. I call that sustainable.
