Summary

A new campaign is calling for livestock farming to be replaced by a technology that creates protein in micro-organism tanks.  Precision fermentation (PF) is a form of brewing, which sees microflora like yeast or bacteria be genetically engineered to make proteins or fats (rather than beer or bread). This, campaigners say, means that we can create the same ingredients found in animal meat, without the animals.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
