Brilliant, Powerful Illustrations That Show Animals Treating Us The Way We Treat Them. Fitness. Fake food: the tech companies working to revolutionise how we eat protein. Ethan Brown likes the taste and texture of meat.
He just doesn't like the morals of it. Until now, that left him with the choice of eating an animal and feeling guilty, or going vegetarian and missing out on the juicy taste of grilled chicken. Fungi-based substitutes such as Quorn don't tend to cut it with those who miss real meat. But Brown, a former clean-energy executive, belongs to a new generation of tech entrepreneurs who are taking a new approach to protein.
"Look at the impact of meat on the climate", he says. Today's mass production of meat poses an acute threat to the environment. Eggs, too, are part of this global circle of rising demand, factory farming, animal cruelty and environmental damage. The Wirecutter. Aubrey de Grey: A roadmap to end aging. Aubrey de Grey.

About two weeks ago I posted an article on the 7 Things You Didn’t Know Will Happen When You Stop Eating Meat, which was a piece focused on what would happen with an individual’s health, wellbeing and lifestyle when they quit meat for good. A vegetarian world would be healthier, cooler and richer: scientists. In Praise of Lab-Grown Meat. Lab-grown meat now seems inevitable, although it is still hard to predict exactly how long it will take to become a popular consumer item.
Here is a quick overview of what this is, and its potential to improve our food supply. Lab grown meat involves taking muscle stem cells from animals, like pigs, chickens, or cows, and then growing them, well, in a lab. They can be grown in a large vat of nutrients.

In just 15 years, since President Bill Clinton’s notorious welfare “reform” of 1996, the number of households living at such a severe state of deprivation had doubled. Kathryn Edin and H. Luke Shaefer’s book, $2.00 a Day: Living on Almost Nothing in America (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt 2015) , focuses on the situation of those living in extreme poverty in the United States. Two dollars a day is the figure the World Bank uses to designate absolute poverty, including in countries with median incomes far below the US per capita.

It would be hard to find an insect more despised these days than the mosquito.
The blood-sucking pest is considered more lethal to humans than any other animal in the world. It has long been blamed for spreading malaria that kills a half-million people each year and is now the villain behind the Zika virus that has sparked panic across South and Central America. Lab-Grown Beef Will Save the Planet. On January 31, the team behind a young biotech startup gathered around what may be the world’s most expensive meatball and got ready to take a bite of their product—real, edible beef from a lab, not a cow—for the first time.
At $18,000 a pound, the meat produced by Memphis Meats probably won’t be on your table anytime soon. But in a few years, it might change the world. The startup and its investors watched as a professional chef rolled the meatball, preparing it with “traditional Italian seasoning,” and then dropped it into a sauté pan to sizzle. The company’s first choice for an independent taster canceled at the last minute, so Stephanie, a friend of a friend of an employee, stepped in.

Open Borders: The Case. Escaping the Refugee Crisis by Peter Singer. PRINCETON – In July, the number of migrants reaching the borders of the European Union passed 100,000 – the third consecutive month in which a new record was set. In one week in August, 21,000 migrants arrived in Greece. Tourists complained that the summer holiday they had planned on a Greek island was now in the midst of a refugee camp. Of course, the refugee crisis has far more serious implications. Last week, Austrian authorities found the decomposing bodies of 71 migrants in a Hungarian truck abandoned near Vienna.
And more than 2,500 would-be migrants have drowned in the Mediterranean this year, most of them attempting to cross from North Africa to Italy.
