Let’s Feed Seaweed To Cows & Reduce Their Methane Burping

Posted by in categories: food, innovation

Old-time solutions are reappearing as we seek to become a zero-emissions society.


How can the agriculture industry reduce the amount of methane released when cows burp? It’s been a struggle for scientists and policymakers. A new method in which farmers feed seaweed to cows — needing to incorporate only about 0.2% of the total feed intake — indicates that methane levels can be reduced by 98%. It’s a real breakthrough, as most existing solutions cut methane only by about 20% to 30%.
