If cows were a country, they would be the world’s third-largest greenhouse gas emitter.

If cows were a country, they would be the world’s third-largest greenhouse gas emitter.
Through mostly burps and the occasional fart, a single cow releases around 250-500 liters of methane a day. They are responsible for 15% of all emissions.
As we discussed in our lab-grown meat snippet, humans aren’t changing their eating habits anytime soon. So, addressing the issue at its source is a great way to tackle these emissions head-on.
Researchers have discovered that adding Brominata — a red seaweed — to cow’s feed can drastically reduce their methane emissions. Replacing just 3% of a cow’s diet with this seaweed can result in an 80% decrease in methane emissions.
Companies like Rumin8, Sea Forest, CH4 Global, Sea Stock, Future Feed, Symbrosia, and Blue Ocean Barns are reimagining how we advance animal agriculture.

Around the world, the impacts of climate change—rising temperatures, shifting patterns of rainfall, more frequent and intense extreme weather, and rising sea levels—are affecting all types of infrastructure, from energy and transport to water, waste, and telecommunications.
