I'm sure many of you have seen this piece, I'm sure I'm not the only one here who gets this newsletter. But anyway, this was interesting. With all the worlds problems it seems like a good thing, accepting the fact that you'll never satisfy purists. Actually, it doesn't seem so bad at all since it's not so much like engineering them from test tubes rather than using available resources to cleverly create Tuna using surrogacy. As the article states, they'd thusly be able to create natural stock that's genetically varied to such a, well, natural and therefore sustainable degree that they'd potentially be able to replenish wild stocks. This technology could exist within 10 years.
What do you think about this?
