Making meat in a lab
How meat grown in labs could reduce our environmental impact.
Imagine if the meat we ate was all grown in shiny silver vats, with no animals harmed in the process.
That鈥檚 the vision of start-ups around the world, each trying to perfect lab-grown or cultured meat.
It鈥檚 a huge challenge in bioengineering to make it work at a cheap enough price. But there are big benefits for the planet if they can pull it off.
