Cultured meat, which is grown from animal cells rather than whole animals, could help meet the rising global demand for meat while reducing environmental impacts. Lab-grown meat startups are working to develop affordable cultured meat that avoids the resource intensiveness and greenhouse gas emissions of conventional meat production. If successful, cultured meat may become a viable alternative that helps ensure global food security in a sustainable manner.
