I actually think that in vitro meat is the perfect solution. I'm glad you mentioned it in the podcast. The main reason people eat meat is because they like to. When in vitro meat is healthier, cheaper, more plentiful, and tastier than the "real thing," people will eat it instead and animals will not have to suffer. I would rather everyone decide to be vegetarians on their own, but let's face it, is that really going to happen?
There will be a first international In Vitro Meat Conference in Norway the weekend of April 11. There is no conference fee.
