Takeaways:
- Upsides Foods has opened up a lab-grown meat facility to produce 50 000 pounds of “meat” for commercial scale once it is approved by the FDA.
- The company boasts that lab grown meat (grown from cultured cells) would require 90% less land and water and would emit up to 90% fewer greenhouse gases.
- And because this process doesn’t require large agricultural crops, these areas could be redeveloped into carbon capturing areas.
