Panel discussion Wednesday, Nov. 18 2015 over lunch @ Hiltl
Meat consumption is increasing worldwide, while at the same time the area of untouched rainforest is decreasing, partly because it is being used intensively for the cultivation of soy for animal feed and as grazing land. Equally alarming is the state of the increasingly overfished oceans and the living conditions of the animals that serve us as food. What alternatives are available? Will we soon be eating artificial, less, no or different (animal) meat?
