We will be discussing the pros of the newly emerging product of lab-made meats and the positive impacts they could have on reducing this burden.  We highlight some of the challenges of introducing lab-made meats to the public, considering market potential and cultural impact, to show how they are not an effective or practical means of lowering meat consumption from a sustainability perspectiveHost: HannahGuests: Paloma and Asmi
