About this episode

What is cultured meat? The world’s ever-growing human population is eating meat in greater quantities than ever before. Yet at the same time, we’re also increasingly conscious of the environmental impact, as well as ethical issues around animal slaughter.  So imagine if you could eat meat without any animals being harmed, and with 96% less greenhouse gas emissions! Well, that is actually possible with cultured meat, which is grown via cell culture in a lab rather than from an animal. It’s also been described as “clean meat”, due to its perceived benefits, but this term has been criticised for not being neutral enough.  So how is cultured meat actually made? Why aren’t we all already eating cultured meat? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions! To listen the last episodes, you can click here: What is Stan Culture ? What is an IPA ? What is Naruto ?
