Glad this is getting closer! Aside from the moral issues, running sunlight, water and feed through a cow is such an inefficient and inelegant way of producing meat...
- Retric 13y agoI expect there still going to use sunlight/plants as a feed-stock in this process.
- mattzito 13y agoRunning grass through a cow is a remarkably efficient way of converting sunlight-capturing grass into calories we can actually digest. At least in the US, much of the scrubland can't support crops without intensive irrigation and fertilizer, but they can support cattle. If you take away the fundamental question of eating meat, it's the way cattle are raised today that's the problem.
- ams6110 13y agoAdditionally, the meat of grass-fed beef is much better for you than corn-fed (actually I believe the real difference is in the fat).
