Fengru's company, TurtleTree Labs, is pioneering lab-grown milk technology to revolutionize the dairy industry. Despite stable cow populations over the past two decades, milk production has surged by 40-60% due to increased yields from larger or more productive cows, a practice that's increasingly unsustainable. With over six billion people consuming milk daily, the environmental footprint is enormous: animal agriculture accounts for 37% of global methane emissions—a potent contributor to climate change.
