Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2023 im Fachbereich Umweltwissenschaften, Note: 1,3, Hochschule Fresenius; Hamburg, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Our objective is to highlight the scientific study about in vitro meat production and its social and ethical implications. The article also underlines the environmental impacts of current meat production and provides insights into the visions and actors in this field.

The 2017 study "In vitro meat: a technical vision to solve the problems of today's meat production and consumption?" conducted by the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology and funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research, sheds light on an innovative method of meat production and its related social and ethical aspects. The study initially outlines the current state of research and explains the production of in vitro meat in a simplified way. Subsequently, it illustrates the negative environmental impacts of current meat consumption. The study also discusses animal welfare, which has been considerably compromised due to industrialization, as well as consumer behavior and its consequences for humans. These points are complemented by interviews with experts and stakeholders, both proponents and critics. Lastly, it introduces the visions and actors or start-ups in the field of in vitro meat. Topics like sustainability, animal welfare, veganism, and environmental protection are increasingly coming into focus, making this subject highly topical and relevant.
