Abstract

Think about what humans will eat in the future. Could you imagine eating meat produced without the extensive farming of animals? This scenario is not as unlikely as you might think. To protect our planet, we must reduce the irreversible damage we are doing to the environment. Eating less meat is a major part of this, because the way we produce most meat today has a tremendous impact on the environment. Plant-based meat alternatives are already available in stores, but it is hard to imitate the taste and texture of meat if no animals are involved. Therefore, scientists have been working on an alternative, called cultivated meat, that is made from real animal tissue but does not require the death of the animal. Cultivated meat shows great promise to become an environmentally and animal-friendly alternative to conventional meat. However, there are still limitations to cultivated meat products that prevent them from being sold in stores.

未来食品--人工肉类能否拯救我们的地球?
想想人类未来会吃什么?你能想象在没有大量饲养动物的情况下吃肉吗?这种情况并不像你想象的那么不可能。为了保护我们的地球,我们必须减少对环境造成的不可逆转的破坏。少吃肉是其中的一个重要部分,因为我们今天生产大多数肉类的方式对环境造成了巨大影响。商店里已经有植物肉类替代品,但如果不涉及动物,就很难模仿肉类的味道和口感。因此,科学家们一直在研究一种名为 "栽培肉 "的替代品,它由真正的动物组织制成,但不需要动物的死亡。栽培肉很有希望成为传统肉类的环保和动物友好型替代品。然而,培养肉制品仍有一些限制,使其无法在商店出售。
