The national food standards body is assessing an application to sell luxury lab-grown meat products, while another company with a cultured lamb burger is waiting to see if customers bite.
I agree with everything you said, and I want to add;
As long as lab grown meat is approved for consumption, the methods of producing it can be made more and more environmentally friendly. It’s a matter of regulation+development.
The “incredibly environmentally unfriendly” bit, as I understand it, is just related to the amount of energy needed to power the labs growing the meat. It assumes this energy is being generated from non-renewable sources, which makes this a very solvable problem.
