Britain said on Monday it had detected a first human case of flu strain A(H1N2)v, which is similar to a virus currently circulating in pigs, and that the individual concerned had experienced a mild illness and fully recovered.

    You have a point, but in such a heavily populated society, the alternatives are either only eating hunted meat (not enough wild animals to support current levels of consumption) or to convince society to go vegan (an extremely hard sell).

      Another option is that we could eat less meat, which would allow for higher health and welfare standards to be implemented on farms.

      I disagree on the hard sell on going vegan, as I’m biased, but i also was a huge meat eater before I made the change about 6 years ago.

        You will obviously be able to convince a few people but probably not a majority of people.

        I really can’t wait the lab grown meat industry to take off. Mass produced wagyu t-bones will be amazing!
