The successful commercialization of cultivated meat would help reduce the number of aquatic and land animals we kill every year for consumption, which conservative estimates place at over a trillion. The amount of suffering this represents is almost impossible to imagine. To put it in a little perspective, only about 117 billion humans have ever lived, according to the Population Reference Bureau.

Indeed. Our food system is nightmarish. I cannot believe methods like Ventilation Shutdown (roasting poultry alive) are quietly normalized.

That is not a normal society. Modern animal agriculture is exceptionally barbaric. Especially given what we know about animal cognition.
