This article is about how the food industry is unsustainable, and solutions people are taking to make a sustainable solution. The food product they are most concerned about is meet, specifically beef. The method scientists have come up with is cultured beef. Cultured Beef is created by painlessly harvesting muscle cells from a living cow. Scientists then feed and nurture the cells so they multiply to create muscle tissue, which is the main component of the meat we eat. It is biologically exactly the same as the meat tissue that comes from a cow. This eliminates most if not all of the greenhouse gases cows produce because it would make huge cattle farms obsolete. It also eliminates all of the waste that includes cow caceres and energy used to feed and kill the cattle. This is also more ethical because humans wouldn’t be raising animals for the slaughter.
