'No longer kill animals': Bill Gates, Richard Branson back 'clean meat' startup (opens in new tab)

It's an interesting question. At Infinite Food[0] we believe the key thing we can certainly bet on is change, so we're building supply chains that support both conventional and emerging proteins, and total end customer transparency. We then expect to develop a sideline in assisting emerging protein providers analyzing the market response to new products as they emerge, in different sub-market demographics.

Wild, conventionally farmed, locally raised, imported, free range, organic, insect, lab-grown, algae or plant-based proteins all have strong economic, ethical, environmental, technical or health arguments... and limitations!

Or how will it work for our pets and the pet food industry?

Cats are obligate carnivores and dogs are scavenging carnivores. They need real meat to survive and thrive. People with pet snakes also need to feed their snakes meat.

Are we going to ban pet ownership?

It will more likely be rich people still eat regular meat.
