    The Spin

    Narrative A

    If regulated and mass-produced ethically, lab-grown or farm-free food could make inexpensive and nutritional food available to everyone on a level never witnessed before by humanity. It will not just aid in global cooling and saving the planet but also increase the probability of eliminating food insecurity worldwide.

    Narrative B

    While farm-free food may attempt to solve world hunger, the technology will likely push millions of people who work in the farming and food processing industries into unemployment, with dairy farms predicted to collapse into bankruptcy as early as 2030 and the beef industry forecast to drop profits by as much as 90% by 2035.
