Lee (2018) notes that, in response to the effects of climate change and a growing human population’s demand for meat, scientists proposed the production and use of in-vitro meat (IVM) technology. IVM technology eliminates the need for wide-scale animal husbandry and slaughter. Lee (2018) argues that despite the proponents of the technology argue that technology would mitigate hunger and environmental implications caused by meat processing besides improving animal welfare and public health. IVM technology, however, may result in unintended environmental and social consequences because it is oversimplified. The research by Lee (2018) is important to understanding the applications of IVM technology. The study provides a succinct background on the IVM technology, which is useful in the mass production of meat.

Milius (2018) describes the ethical and legal perspectives regarding meat produced in laboratories and an alternative to farmed meat and panacea to climate change. Milius (2018) provides the viewpoints of both enthusiasts of technology and its critics. There are diverse controversies and unanswered questions regarding the production of cultured meat. There is an ensuing antagonistic debate between the proponents of the technology and anti-culture meat critics. Analysis of these factors is critical for this paper as it forms the background and thesis statement for the study.

Penn (2018) outlines the environmental implication of the meat industry which contributes to nearly 9% of the global greenhouse gas. Penn believed that the federal regulatory and statutory framework of meat production was not sufficiently prepared to handle cultured meat technology. The strategy will contribute to cut the climate change impacts contributed by meat processing cultured meat technology. Therefore, Penn (2018) evaluates how the available federal regulations have significantly failed to address and protect public health from cultured meat technology. The discussions and findings of the study by Penn (2018) shall be used to provide legal implications of the technology.
