There are billions of people on this planet, and many of us love to eat meat.In 2018 alone, the average American will consume more than 100 kgs of red meat, according to a report from the US Department of Agriculture (USDA).At the same time, the environmental impact caused by meat consumption--waste, animal treatment, health issues and even the greenhouse gas effects-has given rise to a number of startups(新 兴企业) looking for ways to fill our growing demand for meat.But can the demand be filled in a sustainable and affordable wav? A bunch of companies are not only optimistic but are working to make this happen sooner.All of these companies harvest cells from animals and grow them in a lab.For example, San Francisco-based Memphis Meats is developing cell-based meats in its eaxs laboratories by manufacturing fat and muscle cells without requiring any animals.And don't worry if youre not a meat lover.Startups such as Jet Eat, which is based in Israel, are working on food products grown in labs that are plant-based and produce meats using natural ingredients while still maintaining flavor, consistency and the “overall sensory experience” As you can imagine, there are plenty of hurdles facing the industry.Educating the public is a big one.Another controversial issue is the labelling of the products.Meat industry trade groups have been pressing the USDA to more strictly regulate alternative meats, labeled as“imitation products” Many of us have concerns about the challenges facing future generations as our global population swells and the earth's natural resources shrink.The good news is that there are plenty of companies around the world-like those producing lab-grown meats--who are working to solve some of these problems and make a few bucks in the process.Nothing wrong with that.

A project in Gambiais empowering women and reducing dangerous waste at the same time The Waste Innovation Center, funded by the European Union's Global Climate a Change Alliance, shows women in the Brikama area how to recycle waste into useful materials and products, which they can then sell in local markets Wood-like waste is recycled into charcoal(木炭),for example, which can be used to supersede firewood and reduce the number of trees that are cut down for firewood. Food waste is recycled into compost(混合肥料)to function as environmentally friendly fertilizers and plastic is turned into many useful things. Supported by WasteAid UK and the Gambia Women's Initiative (GWI).among others. the project provides women with skills they can use to become self-sufficient(自给自足的).Women learning at the center come from five communities, and some of them travel as far as 12 miles to learn these important skills that will provide them with an income, according to The Guardian Isatou Ceesay, who now leads the GWI, highlighted the need to focus on economic equality in her country, telling The Guardian, “In terms of education, women are the ones who are always behind.Boys are chosen to go to school. When we conduct our training, we find women can do a lot, but don't know who thev are. or how to implement(实施)things. According to the World Health Organization's Country Cooperation Strategy 2008-2013 report. the main environmental issue facing Gambia is poor waste management in urban areas Ndey Sireng Bakurin, executive director of the National Environment Agency, has voiced concern over health and environmental risks. such as water pollution, the increase of insects as well as flooding that occur as a result of poor waste management
