it wont be long and we wont have to murder animals for our meat source anymore- I cant wait-in the meantime I try not to eat a lot of meat- the world is trying to turn green but its slow expensive process and needs to happen a lot faster-
Thanks for your reply Agnes. I have a couple more ideas on saving electricity but thought it best to allow others to post and not hog your thread.
Speaking of hogs, I hope you don't mind my ruthless post in the meat thread today. As a vegetarian for originally ethical reasons, I still eat an egg every day and cheese which comes from milk which comes from a cow, but it doesn't have to kill the cow, just like eating an egg doesn't kill the chicken.
The massive weight loss and the improvement in my overall health since I stopped eating meat is not something I can really put into words to describe on a web forum. There is still more than enough protein in my diet with eggs and beans and traditional veges that come from the supermarket, without any of those specialised vege-burgers or other expensive boutique-style products.
I don't see any major problem (yet) with this new technology to culture meat in a lab, but it is largely just a dirty habit in society which we can survive without if we can quit.
Please don't be offended by my reply in the meat thread. I am glad to meet a fellow green-minded member.
