Researchers at UC Davis say cultivated meat is likely to be 25 times more energy-intensive than traditional beef in its current form and would lead to more global warming.

A preprint study finds that the impact of lab-based meat on climate change could be 4 to 25 times greater than the average for retail beef.

Fresh research out of the University of California, Davis suggests the global warming potential of cultured meat could be between 4-25% higher than regular beef if a highly refined growth medium is used in its production.

New research has raised doubts over whether lab-grown meat could be a greener alternative for the planet than conventional meat produced from livestock.
