Fur and leather, sans the whole skinning cute animals thing.

We've been able to grow skin in a lab for years. Why not put those creepy seal-clubbing Canadians out of business and make the fur ourselves? We could save millions, maybe billions of tons of CO2 and methane by making leather in a warehouse without a single cow involved. And think of the profits going back into science!

How are these guys missing this opportunity??

And yes, this was one of those half-conscious ideas that came to me at 3 am this morning. Actually it involved self-assembling tailored suits, but I can't seem to remember how they worked so I posted this instead.
