New book 'Meat' explores how the next food revolution could transform meat consumption

from PBS News Hour - Health · host PBS News

In his new book "Meat," Bruce Friedrich argues that the way we produce meat is unsustainable — for the climate, the planet and public health — and that the solution isn't eating less of it, but making it differently. From lab-grown meat to plant-based alternatives, he says a food revolution is already underway, whether consumers realize it or not. Geoff Bennett speaks with Friedrich for more.
