We may get a diffrent carcinogenic aspect of meat through sterile conditions potentially. Although this is hypothetical on my part.

I believe I and RWT have discussed this before.

"Cultured meat production, on the other hand, produces carbon dioxide, which persists for hundreds of years. So the potential benefits of cultured meat in terms of emissions are unclear."

From the previous studies I looked at, it depends on the energy sourse being used to produce cultured meat. The implicit assumption is that such cultured meat will use renewable enegery (however, this is not a given). With methane, while it does spend less time in the atmosphere, because livestock rearing is a cycle it may as well treat it as a constant factor if the variable it is based upon is continious.

"Another potential problem is pathogens. For the moment, it is impossible to know with certainty whether they are really eliminated from the meat grown in the laboratory or whether they change in nature."

Sterile enviroment, so less of a consideration in the sense of COVID. Actually, this may be a problem in itself as people don't realise that you may want some pathogens in order for your immune system to function properly. Otherwise, you can get auto-immune disorders, more prone to disease, more likelyhood of allergic reactions, etc.

Seen this today as well. Think it will be of any use?

"A large fire at Britain’s main electricity subsea cable will reduce imports from France until the end of March, National Grid has warned, triggering fears over tight supplies at a time when power prices have surged to record highs."

Found this as well.

Okay, good to know. Yes, 30% seems reasonable.

I'd put some of it in, rather than all of it (although I'm sure that's what you mean).

"CellX, which raised $4.3 million earlier this year and is now seeking fresh funding, is also eyeing the global market, however."

Maybe this is where they are planning to invest some of the money.

"Agronomics, a leading listed investor in alternative proteins with a focus on cellular agriculture and cultivated meat, is pleased toannounce today that the Company has completed a subscription of US$ 50,000, in the form of a Simple Agreement for Future Equity("SAFE"), in CellX Limited ("CellX"). The Subscription will be paid using cash from the Company's own resources. The SAFE will convertat the valuation cap divided by the company capitalisation at the next equity financing, which should give Agronomics an approximateequity ownership of 1.43%."

You'de think so, but stock markets aren't rational and AIM even more so. Passions, emotions and sentiments play a key role (and market manipulation for good measure) on AIM. There are a lot of decent companies who are slowly producing results, but reciever little to no attention because they are not hot stocks. Likewise, you get companies like this which are good at selling a story of future worth, and people flock to it for a time like moths to a flame.

People get bored when there is not a lot going on and go somewhere else, or they get spooked and start to worry because they are not sure why that money hasn't been spent yet. They may be waiting for the next fundraisers on their current investments, or may be searching around for new companies but have not found any at a good price yet.

Cheers silent.

Have to agree with you about AIM stock movements being somewhat baffling. AIM allshare seems to have been stagnant for a while now, at least since March this year. I'd suggest a lack of news, mixed with current finacial, economic and logistical problems in the UK economy may contribute to the current stagnency overall.

I can't because I don't have a subscription. I don't know if chasable may be able too however.

Why did I not see that before I double posted the link? Either way, it's good to see it in the times of all places.

Just go back to Atlantis, which was what the company was originally called.

If we're going to use algae to collect carbon, I think the goverment needs to have a mandatory CO2 buyback scheme. There has been talk about using the algae for fertiliser and other products, but I belive it will still be in the carbon cycle so will contribute to global warming. The article says we need to bury the stuff, so that's what we probably should do unless we can find other ways to sell the algae without it affecting the natrual carbon cycle.

Ah, glad I'm not the only one who thinks this. Thought I was going crazy.

I'm gradually becoming more optermistic of our chances, although there is still stuff that could go wrong. What's happening with the EP, as I have not heard anything about that in a while.

Yes, I have heard that mentioned before. Makes sense. At least the general sentiment among PIs is favourable at the moment.

Does anyone know why? My guess is that it's not a "hot stock".

Excellent. If I remeber correctly, Barry Gardener highlighted the concern of ecological impact of tidal devices in the water. While he was keen of the technology, he was pretty adement that these types of studies needed to be carried out. This will aid to reduce some of the concerns MPs have had as to the impact of tidal technology.

It was a potential obsticle, but one it looks like we are passing by without smashing into it (for now). I am silently optimistic about the tidal front and maybe Uskmouth, but I could not in good faith reccomend the company as it is now unless if you have an appetite for risk. I do think the company has bought itself an important thing however--time. Nine months is just enough time for us to see if fortune will be more favourable to us, or it will not.
