    Lab-Grown Meat Causes Global Warming Too!


    Hand-Wringing! It Turns Out Lab-Grown Meat Causes Global Warming Too!

    Global warming alarmists insist that we must drastically reduce or eliminate the eating of meat because, well, food-animal flatulence is destroying the planet, don't you know.

    But getting billions of people to stop eating beef isn't very realistic, so some have put their hopes in lab-grown steaks made from stem cells. Oh no! That could be worse! From the BBC story:

    "Per tonne emitted, methane has a much larger warming impact than carbon dioxide. However, it only remains in the atmosphere for about 12 years, whereas carbon dioxide persists and accumulates for millennia," said co-author Prof Raymond Pierrehumbert.

    "This means methane's impact on long-term warming is not cumulative and is impacted greatly if emissions increase or decrease over time."

    The scientists' climate model found that in some circumstance and over the very long term, the manufacture of lab meat can result in more warming. This is because the emissions from the lab are related to the production of energy which is almost entirely made up of carbon dioxide, which persists in the atmosphere for hundreds of years.


    Hand-wringing. Everywhere you look, there is hand-wringing.

    At least manufacturing meat will improve water pollution, right? Not necessarily:

    Yes, the authors say that a number of other factors should be considered including water pollution that cultured meat may avoid. But other experts say that isn't so clear cut.

    "Artificial meat may result in the presence of organic or chemical molecule residues in water, because the process would need to produce huge amounts of chemical and organic molecules, such as hormones, growth factors, to add to the culture medium to grow the meat" said Prof Jean-Francois Hocquette, at the French National Institute for Agricultural Research, who wasn't involved with the study.


    Good grief. Do you ever get the feeling that important sectors of society spend most of their time chasing their own tails?

    The bottom line as I see it: If you don't like this study, wait a few months and another will be published offering different conclusions.

    The intellectual effort expended in this investigation was a waste of time and energy.
    The cultured meat industry will grow or fail because of consumer satisfaction issues such as taste, texture, safety, and price, not due to terror about global warming.









    This I say therefore, and testify in the Lord, that ye henceforth walk not as other Gentiles walk, in the vanity (futility) of their mind, having the understanding darkened...
    (Ephesians 4:17-18)

    Regular meat does not cause global warning. That's a straw man created by the liberal left vegan/vegetarians/corporation lunatics who want to control what we eat. And it's all about money.

    Which equates to control.

    The science is overwhelming:


    Which is a bigger methane source: cow belching or cow flatulence?
    Contrary to common belief, it’s cow belching due to enteric fermentation. (“Enteric fermentation” is the digestive process of converting sugars into simple molecules for absorption into the bloodstream, which produces methane as a by-product.) However, a small percentage of methane is also produced in the cow’s large intestine and then expelled. Settling ponds and lagoons for processing manure also produce copious amounts of this greenhouse gas.

    This doesn't get much press because of the influence of the "Bacon Industrial Complex."

    It's Ironic that these scientist waste their time studying such idiotic incompetent nonsense.

    These so called important (people) sectors of society are in the same category as the scientists who come to these insane conclusions about global warming. Their educated minds have become mentally deficient and underdeveloped. Global warming and the green deal are absolute nonesense, thats why there is a hidden agenda behind the theory because there is no existence behind the phenomenal. Look at all the harsh winters we have had, including this winter. Looks like to me there is global cooling and perhaps a mini-ice age looming in the future.

    Genesis 8:22
    While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.


    II Peter 3:7
    But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same Word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.


    II Peter 3:10-13
    (10) But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.
    (11) Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness,
    (12) Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?
    (13) Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.


    Revelation 20:11-15
    (11) And I saw a Great White Throne, and Him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them.
    (12) And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.
    (13) And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works.
    (14) And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.
    (15) And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.



    Revelation 21:1
    And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.

    I believe in God's "global fire' as stated in the Scriptures you posted.

    Think about how ridiculous this story really is. I mean it’s absurd and laughable. Talk about blatantly obvious agenda driven ‘science’.
