[QUOTE="Bald Rick, post: 7827348, member: 2922"] That is the stated aim of Patrick Brown, CEO of Impossible Foods which creates meat substitutes using genetically engineered yeasts. He is quoted in today’s Times as ”If we eliminated animal agriculture in the next 15 years it causes a pause in emissions that lasts 30 year. Biomass recovery alone will remove from the atmosphere the equivalent of 22 years of fossil fuel emissions at the current rate.” ‘Why is this important? Because cows and sheep produce huge volumes of methane - a powerful greenhouse gas. And if grazing land was used to grow trees it would create a huge carbon sink.’ Impossible Foods has raised its money from a variety of venture capitalist funders including Bill Gates. it seems to me that every opportunity is being taken to demonise meat and dairy. There was no counter argument to the fact that this is highly processed gloop and that VCs don’t invest out of the goodness of their hearts. [/QUOTE]
