Proponents argue that it can reduce environmental impact and animal suffering, and improve food security. Opponents argue that it may face public resistance and unknown long-term health effects.

If lab-grown meat is to be commercialised, chattle farmers need to be subsidised in order to convert to arable farming.
@MG---Sw 2mos2MO
Yes, but only when safety can be ensured. The government should also promote meat-free diets or low-meat diets for health and environment reasons.
@9ZW5DMK7mos7MO
Investment into natural unprocessed food to make it more accessible to lower income families is far more important.
@9MLXW341yr1Y
Yes, as long as the sector is regulated as with the food and agriculture industries.
@9ZF5GD58mos8MO
If there are no health concerns with the specific meat products added to the market, I see no issue with it.
@9YLLZZK8mos8MO
We're not there yet, but thought also has to be given to what this will do to already existing industries.
@9S5TD2211mos11MO
No, and should be encouraging the creation and refinement of plant-based alternatives
@9NWX4CX1yr1Y
Only in the case where there is a massive food shortage to an extent everyone is a ak risk from dying from starvation in the near future.
