    I think in the future, it will be seen in a similar light to how people see fur today

    You mention fur, as if we have stopped farming it. The article is literally about how the government in Denmark was just fine with mink farming until now. If the demand wasn’t there, the farming would have disappeared already.

      We haven’t stopped it all yet but the total amount of fur farming is massively down as well and banned in an increasing number of countries. To imagine we would have been here only like 10-20 years ago would have been hard to fathom. I meant that we could see similar trajectories for meat, dairy, eggs, etc.
