I’d be down for some algae burgers if it helps the planet 🌿🍔

    I think that as soon as green alternatives are tastier and cheaper than the alternative, they will become more popular, like how solar panels are popular now that they are cheaper than coal power

      Well, yes, this requires production of similar scale at every stage of the chain. With animals it’s animal food, drugs, various machinery in production, etc, which also cost less due to scale on which they are produced.

      Green alternatives in this case have a potential to be honestly (without subsidies or anything) cheaper in the end.
