But sewerage is not just poo, it's all those nasty chemicals which get flushed down with the wipes which break down to micro plastics.
We still are behind the curve with the impact on the environment from micro plastics.

Because these fake meat companies and their promoters are all part of the cartel.

Lab-grown lion and tiger meat is now on the menu.
Lab-grown meat is on the rise. It’s time to start asking tough questions
‘No-kill’ meals offer environmental and ethical benefits. They could also give a few companies control over what we eat

I wouldn't fancy my chances with it. You never know what process it all has to go through before it reaches your plate.
Why’s it gonna get cheaper? How are they gonna make the raw materials cheaper when they’re going up in price? And what’s happening to power prices to make this stuff?
That article’s over a year old. Old news. How are they getting on solving the problems?Lab-grown lion and tiger meat is now on the menu.

From April 2022
Elephant, lion, tiger, and zebra steaks are on the menu thanks to lab made meats
If you can take the cell from an animal and use it to grow meat in bioreactors then that cell can be from any animal - from T-Rex's to Porcupines and Pandas ... this is a food revolution.

Lab-grown Meat Coming To UK As Soon As 2022 - Animal Agriculture and Climate Change
Mass produced, commercially sold lab-grown meat could radically transform our eating habits for the better; and its not so far from becoming a reality.

I have no idea but people are always finding new ways to do things . Just because you & I can't see how it can happen doesn't mean it won't happen
For sure, it has always been about fake food rather than fake meat.
As above. Yes you do.
Quite. Which is the point I was making. Fake food is a symptom, not a cause. Everyone likes to get uppity about fake meat as if it in itself is a threat to their business. It isn't, it is the corporations behind fake meat that are the threat. Yet the industry doesn't have any interest in challenging those corporations, on the contrary it remains happy for its representative bodies to remain so far up their arse they will need a torch to find a way out.
Obv the first one is prob beyond my understanding so I’ll try to read it later but the second one is clearly 3 years old, even though there’s no date on it for some reason.From April 2022

Quoting a 2012 study isn’t exactly what I’d call using scientifically up to the minute analysis. Then we have variously words/phrases like:
by summer 2020
aiming
confident that
move towards
etc, etc, etc.
And the general liberal use of misinformation and "accepted information" that is now known not to be valid.
More recent reports around this industry aren’t quite so full of optimism as reality starts to sink in. If they can’t make decent money at it then it won’t take over the world in the way planned.

Just out of interest, why did you say the second one might be easier to read? Because the webpage is horrendous? Nothing difficult about the text. 2019 again though.From April 2022

Which one of these outfits did Channel 4 invest millions with?
Beyond Meat will be taken over. Oatly essentially already has been even though it retains a listing. They won’t necessarily disappear, but the money train is grinding to a halt. Maybe not listening to the rhetoric in the media, but share charts tell you what you need to know many months in advance. Impossible Foods are struggling too but they aren’t listed.

The company we sell potatoes to have come to us asking us to grow various crops such as Cowpeas to be ground up for ‘Green Protein’ to make these fake meat products. There’s also a big article in the Vegetable Farmer magazine about Naylors a large cabbage grower in Lincolnshire looking to do similar with cabbages. However as this all takes further processing the most climate friendly thing is for people just to eat their vegetables ‘au naturel’
Indeed. The concept of potato protein blows my mind. If you want protein why start with potatoes? Apart from the fact they’re dirt cheap obvs?

And the fake meat industry is a part of the ultra processed food industry, which is a threat not only to the health of the population, but also the health of our soils, on which we all depend, so I for one am very happy it's not going well for them.

I think it's because we are very sensitive to attitudes in the media that reflect on animal agriculture.
A big drive to more locally produced food would do most for the planet but will people change their ways? Hard to see when price is always the biggest factor.

Let’s face it most people won’t eat their vegetables so rather than not letting them leave the table until they’ve eaten their broccoli we’ll turn it into a burger instead.

one of the lads at Aikido, with a degree in micro biology was saying the other day, that eating meat was bad for climate change, cue soap box and a big explanation from me as to why ruminant agriculture was important and why we need more cattle and regen ag. I don't know if he agreed, or just nodded to shut up the farmer!
