Artificial Meat

Early in December the BBC wrote an article on growing meat in a laboratory. I am really excited about science trying to decrease strain on the planet and animal suffering. I believe we have gotten to the point where companies selling a product have more influence over the public than advocacy groups. Therefore if a company has found a way to benefit from competing with factory farms I am very much for it.

Below is an interview between BBC's Claire Bolderson and Mark Post a Professor of Tissue Engineering at Eindhoven University.
