Journalist Amanda Little talks with food innovator Uma Valeti at Aspen
Ideas: Health. Valeti is growing meat from cell cultures.

“Climate change is becoming something we can taste,” says Amanda Little,
author of The Fate of Food. Every decade going forward, she says, we’ll see
a 2 to 6 percent decline in food production because of drought, heat,
flooding, and more. On top of that, the world’s population is growing — so
there are more mouths to feed and less food to go around. Former
cardiologist Uma Valeti has an innovative solution: grow meat in a
laboratory. His company Memphis Meats is using animal cells to produce
meat. “We look for cells we think will yield high quality taste and
texture,” he says. The company is growing meat, not the animal, so the
climate impact is minimal — an important factor given how much methane
traditional agriculture emits. [3]Learn more about how Valeti is rethinking
meat.

With an impeachment inquiry underway in the House, it’s time to brush up on
American history. In the Aspen Ideas to Go podcast, Harvard Law professor
Cass Sunstein offers a primer on how impeachment works, what makes an
impeachable offense, and how many presidents have been impeached. His take
is nonpartisan and historical. After hearing Sunstein, you’ll be in awe of
our constitutional order and the power it gives We the People. [6]Listen to
the podcast episode.

that is without fear, prejudice, malice, or any of the other things that we
create to separate ourselves one from the other.” — Jessye Norman, Aspen
