Algae to reduce cow gas?

Yes, really. ☝️

When a cow digests, it naturally produces methane, a gas with a very high climate impact. It is responsible for about 30% of current global warming related to greenhouse gases.

🌿 Some species of seaweed contain molecules that “calm” fermentation in the stomach, reducing the amount of gas produced during digestion.

When included in the diet in very small amounts, these seaweeds can:

➡️ Reduce methane emissions from digestion by up to 80%

➡️ Improve digestion

➡️ Decrease the climate impact of livestock without harming animal health or production

A powerful way to reconcile livestock farming and climate!

The Regen Ocean Farms project, supported by you since 2024, works with communities in Brazil to develop sustainable, locally grown seaweed for these innovative uses.

➡️ A double benefit: creating an economic sector for local communities while having a positive impact on the climate!

🎥 The project will be featured in our upcoming Pure Ocean documentary 2025: Flor Do Mar. Discover it on Wednesday, December 3, at our Ocean Night. 🌙
