As a chemical engineer, what I can comment (without having enough time to read the whole report) are the following short facts:
We cannot continue our uncontrolled population growth without increasing the effect our average lifestyle has on the environment.
Whether lab based meat is attainable or not, (currently, and at this scale) we cannot continue to eat a meat-centric diet without impacting the environment much in the same way that we cannot have a chocolate-cake based diet without gaining weight or eventually having malnutrition.
In order to have more average 'freedom' of choices when it comes to our diet and lifestyle, we need to agree to decrease the population so we can lessen or revert the impact we have.
Some may snarkily say that if we don't do it, mother nature may do it for us.
