Scientists Make Meat A laboratory in the Netherlands uses cow muscle and fat to grow meat, revolutionising what we eat.
Currently, a little piece of meat costs around $12,500 to make, but professor Mark Post said that the
laboratory has an investor from the meat industry, and he envisions that it will take about three years
to get the first hamburger on the market. It will be still rather expensive and in small production, so it
will target only specialty restaurants at a price of 12–14 dollars for a hamburger, but the price will
inevitably come down in the years after that. The production will be more resource efficient and it will
hit the supermarket seven years from now, according to the professor’s guess.
Com base no texto, é correto afirmar que
A butcher said that people are very skeptical and nervous about manufactured products as it is, and
scientists agree that public acceptance is key to the success of this product.
Com base no texto, é correto afirmar que

REPORT SUGGESTS LIFTING BAN ON ELEPHANT CULL
Some Botswanan MPs say the elephant population is out of control
Botswana is considering the reintroduction of big game hunting and reducing its elephant population by turning them into pet food. The recommendations were made in a recent report to Mokgweetsi Masisi, the president.
Botswana has around 130,000 elephants, the largest population in the world, and has long been hailed as a safe refuge for the species amid an Africa-wide poaching crisis. But some Botswanan MPs argue the population is out of control and puts lives and livelihoods of small scale farmers at risk.
The report says hunting would boost tourism while “managing’ the elephant population. It also called for “regular but limited” culling. It suggested meat from culled elephants could be used in canned pet food.

Abstract
Background: The combination of four protective lifestyle behaviours (being physically active, a non-smoker, a moderate alcohol consumer and having adequate fruit and vegetable intake) has been estimated to increase life expectancy by 14 years. However, the effect of adopting these lifestyle behaviours on general health, obesity and mental health is less defined. We examined the combined effect of these behaviours on self-rated health, overweight/obesity and depression.
Methods: Using data from the Survey of Lifestyle Attitudes and Nutrition (SLÁN) 2007 (), a protective lifestyle behaviour (PLB) score was constructed for 10 364 men and women (>18 years), and representative of the Republic of Ireland adult population (response rate 62%). Respondents scored a maximum of four points, one point each for being physically active, consuming five or more fruit and vegetable servings daily, a non-smoker and a moderate drinker.
Results: One-fifth of respondents (20%) adopted four PLBs, 35% adopted three, 29% two, 13% one and 2% adopted none. Compared to those with zero PLBs, those with four were seven times more likely to rate their general health as excellent/very good [OR 6.8 95% Cl (3.64- 12.82)] and four times more likely to have better mental health [OR 4.4 95% Cl (2.34-8.22)].
Conclusions: Adoption of core protective lifestyle factors known to increase life expectancy is associated with positive self-rated health, healthier weight and better mental health. These lifestyles have the potential to add quality and quantity to life.
Key words: lifestyle behaviours, self-rated, health, obesity, depression, protective factors.
