Is Cultivated Meat the Future of Food? | Uma Valeti | TED
The way we raise animals is destructive to humans, animals and the environment, says cardiologist and entrepreneur Uma Valeti. He presents a solution that doesn’t require you to give up your favorite protein-packed meals: cultivated meat, grown directly from animal cells. Reportedly some of the “most chicken-y chicken” you’ll taste, Valeti envisions how such cultivated…

Building trust in crypto with Jonathan Levin of Chainalysis | Equity Podcast
Late last week, U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission chair Gary Gensler said that he was “proud to serve” the agency, which some are taking as a hint at an upcoming resignation. Gensler has faced heavy criticism for his crackdown on crypto, including a recent lawsuit from 18 states, and is likely to be replaced under…

Ben Horowitz’s cozy relationship with the LVMPD – and why it matters | Equity Podcast
Over the last few years, VC Ben Horowitz has donated at least $7.6 million to fund police department purchases – including the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department’s new drones from a16z-backed Skydio. Skydio is not the first of a16z’s portfolio companies to benefit from these donations, either. Kirsten Korosec, Devin Coldewey and Margaux MacColl dig…

@r.m8146
June 21, 2024 at 1:43 pm
It has already been done, and it’s much more simple for milk. It’s about to hit the shelves pretty soon.
Google entry: milk fermentation lab grown:
“Lab-grown dairy is made with all the same cells as traditional dairy, only it is created in a giant bioreactor rather than a factory farm. Here, a process known as precision fermentation is used, which is similar to what has been used for decades to brew beer, make insulin, and produce rennet for cheese.”

Fossil fuels – coal, oil and gas – are by far the largest contributor to global climate change, not Animal Agriculture. Accounting for over 75 per cent of global greenhouse gas emissions and nearly 90 per cent of all carbon dioxide emissions. Stop lying.
@michaelwatts1810
June 21, 2024 at 12:10 pm
The “solution” of cultivated “meat” is a death sentence for the climate as it takes much more energy per ounce than raising an actual animal. More energy means more carbon emissions. This is just one more way the WEF plans to control the human race.
@xoRaQxo
June 21, 2024 at 12:23 pm
There is a lot of good information here. I do feel the representation of the ethical challenges that come with implementation of lab grown meats were oversimplified.
There is so much more to this than weighing the value of tradition vs, or slaughter vs….

If you can’t taste the strong chemical flavor of bleach in rotisserie chicken, especially in leftover chicken kept in the fridge the next day, you might want to get your taste buds checked. These days, meat can be very dangerous. Having lived in the country, we ate fresh food straight from off the farm.
In the United States, our food supply chain is seriously outdated and way too slow from farm to table. Many people are perplexed by why they can’t seem to satisfy their hunger. This “food noise” is often due to the fact that our food loses its nutritional value by the time it reaches our plates. You could eat all day and still not get the nutrients you need, just empty calories. This leaves us essentially starving while gaining weight. Unfortunately, poor health consequences are also inevitable in the long run.
@spilo4900
June 21, 2024 at 1:20 pm
Do you know what is actually going to happen? the cultivated meat will never replace or even lower the production of the actual meat producers, which means: increasing production, more pollution and more waste. We will only have a new product to choose from….
@hermitonthelake
June 21, 2024 at 4:22 pm
I think you’re right. It may lower ever so slightly…but most likely, eventually, we will learn this bioreactor vat-meat is not nutritionally viable…just like impossible meat.

Great presentation. I wholeheartedly support the development of cultivated meat. Our current and near future food production systems are a horrifying mess.
I live next to a dairy farm that also produces meat. I have witnessed the spraying of slurry across the pasture here, recycling the waste from the cattle feeding to grow more fodder. It’s a crazy and dangerous closed cycle both for public health and animal welfare.
Only one thing I had hoped to learn was missing here. What is the production stream for nutrients in this production process?

😢What about all the baby cow serum required to grow lab meat and the hardships of making the muscular fibers have the same texture as regular meat? Have they overcome that? Are there no downsides? Is this a Ted presentation for the sake of knowledge or just and ad?
@SystemLordNemo
June 21, 2024 at 6:32 pm
I vaguely remember that I read one scientific study about replacement for that serum. That was many many months ago. I came here to hear a report of their progress but that ad like presentation with little details was disappointing. However they seem to be more confident and; make no mistake; if they can’t replace that serum this product will never succeed. So maybe they did? I need to find more information …after a presentation form expert. : Sigh…

This is a bunch of lies and bullshit, the farmers arent the leading cause of global warming geo engineering is. The people making false claims about global warming are people that live in polluted cities. Yet, they want to blame the farmers in the country for polluting. You dont need a degree to see that obviously, the fresh air on a farm is better than the polluted smog in the cities.

There’s no argument the practices in the animal ag industry are horrific. Why not change the practices in the animal ag industry rather than resorting to growing food in a lab that decades from now will be identified as the common denominator of a human health crisis? After everything that’s happened in the last decade its the science I trust the least.

If you can make cultivated meat cheaper than regular meat & taste better, you will take over the industrial ag market.

I’m down for veggies. This one time I was invited to an Indian wedding an the guys that made the food were cooking on the back alleys of the event, they made this Booooomb cauliflower that tasted like buffalo chicken wings. there’s lots of ways to eat vegetables and make it very delicious. But honestly I do not believe in man made chemicals and preservatives that are added to food just to make them taste like meat. Even if the expert say that these chemicals do not harm the body I know they really do.

This concept is only good for a ted talk; however, once this idea is sold to an entrepreneur, he wont care about science or saftey but will focused solely on profit, they will introduce hormones and fillers to reduce costs while increasing prices under the guise of sustainability, potentially causing harm to consumers.

The vast majority of climate change is caused by fossil fuels. Meat is a small percentage, maybe 10%. If you care about climate change, please do your best to reduce your use of fossil fuels, including plastic.
@martynhaggerty2294

Did not mention comparative cost. Must be more expensive.
@user-fk8zw5js2p
June 24, 2024 at 8:45 am
He mentions manufacturing at scale at 9:56 and increasing efficiency a couple of times because the cost is the biggest hurdle for cultured meat right now. He mentioned reducing the cost by 99%, but what he is implying with the rest of his talk is that it is still too expensive to compete with farm raised meats.

Well, I would rather you tell the real story, it is 100% investment and for the sole purpose of making money, to reduce the cost of production and increase the profit margin, it is not about animals wellbeing. put lab grown meat on a wide scale in the market, and you push farming animals towards extinction in few decades, because who will raise farming animals just for fun, for thousands of years humans have been raising them for food.
In few decades we will go to the zoo to see the last few cows left 🙂
