      I can understand why you’re getting downvoted. People don’t want to stop eating animals. I know I don’t. But we really should. You’re right, it’s horrible for the planet. I for one am looking forward to the lab grown meat future.

        Why even lab grown? I’ve eaten burgers from vegan shops that I prefer to meat ones. They’re meatier and tastier than every other meat based burger in their price range.

        Of course not every restaurant is this good yet but I have a feeling it’ll outpace the rate of lab grown meat availability.

          Why even lab grown? Because people will not give up meat. Humans want fat and muscle protein without the cruelty and waste.
          I’m all for vegan options as well. I love me a well made vegan burger.

      animals mostly eat parts of plants that people can’t or won’t eat, so in that way they help us conserve resources.

          a third of cropland is literally dedicated to growing livestock feed

          that’s not what your source says. and all of agriculture is about 20% of our emissions, but i’d be fine if it were 100%: we need to eat.

        I feel like this is overlooked, that animals eat stuff we can’t/won’t- like grass or discarded food.
