“The future of our planet depends on how we feed ourselves…and we have a responsibility to look beyond the horizon for smarter, sustainable ways to eat. GOOD Meat is doing just that, pushing the boundary on innovative new solutions, and I’m excited for everyone to taste the result—” Chef Jose Andrés on serving lab-grown chicken in his restaurants.

In Episode 369 of District of Conservation, Gabriella digests two news stories. First, the advent of lab-grown meat, cultured chicken being approved for sale, and what it means from agriculture. Then she breakdowns the ESG movement and BlackRock CEO, Larry Fink, confessing he likes ESG but not the name. Tune in to learn more.
