A cultured solution to climate change

Given the resources needed to provide meat in the journal way, and the rapid expansion in demand as vast developing populists acquire a taste for it, researching a lab grown replacement is perhaps an important option in dealing with climate change :

" Inspired by the "numbers, not adjectives" principle, my colleagues and I assessed the environmental impacts of cultured meat production and have published our findings in a peer-review journal. The results showed that cultured meat has 80-95% lower greenhouse gas emissions, 99% lower land use and 80-90% lower water use compared to conventionally produced meat in Europe." :
