In Finland Solar Foods Ltd. has demonstrated making protein called Solein with renewable electricity and CO2 as raw material and are building their first real plant soon. | |||
Water demand of this new method is fraction of plant-based nutrition, let alone meats and it is slightly CO2 negative if the electricity is not from CO2 emitting power plants. | |||

=== Cattle emissions === | |||
According to Australian research, if 2% dry mattter of the [[w:Asparagopsis taxiformis|Asparagopsis taxiformis]] seaweed is added to cattle fodder, the bovines' methane production falls to a tiny fraction (fall of 98.9%) in 72 hrs compared to cattle fed with traditional feed. | |||
