My Predictions

Will Meat be produced in a Lab this year?

Current forecast: 13% chance
Combining all predictions, the current forecast is that this is 13% likely to happen (unchanged in last 1 day)

Animal-welfare group PETA has offered a US$1-million bounty to the first scientist who can produce marketable lab-grown meat.

An outcome of 'yes' will develop if anyone is awarded the bounty.


Settlement details: As reported by a major mainstream news source.

thnx mork for creating this question.
I read about this and thought about a market here, but could not figure out how to construct.
you certainly have made a decent question. kudos and all the baggage that goes with it.

LMAO- "meat" is what they object to most! next we'll have some wack job anti-test tube-meat lobby, trying to save the faceless meat from being consumed...or PETA will object because a few lines of meat-stem cells are destroyed in the process.... no, the answer lies in bigger changes than "lab-meat".... but i like the question!
