Red algae will NOT eliminate livestock as a problem for combating climate change.
The U.N. has a report stating that the livestock industry contributes more to the greenhouse effect than *transportation*.
One reason is methane.
It was hoped that mixing seaweed into livestock feed would cut methane emissions. Earlier studies showed 90% reductions and higher.
However, this latest and longest running study only showed a 28% reduction.
A guaranteed way to reduce methane emissions from the livestock industry is to minimize meat consumption. Eat less meat.
