One technology long touted as a potential climate fix is anaerobic digestion, but research from @worldresources.bsky.social shows that though digesters produce energy, they aren’t all that effective at actually tackling the methane emissions themselves.
Why Biodigesters Fall Short as a Climate Fix
A new report from the World Resources Institute finds anaerobic digesters offer limited climate benefit for a high price tag.

Cultivated meatballs, bacon, and salami made without animal slaughter will soon be sold in U.S. grocery stores for the first time (one Sprouts market in Oakland).

The pig that donated the cells is still alive, living happily in upstate NY:

There’s no way to make regenerative agriculture work, at least not if Americans and others in Global North countries continue to eat the same amount of meat.

Regenerative meat — though popular with celebrities and politicians — doesn’t live up to the hype.

Yes, plant-based meats fit in a healthy diet! In our paper in Frontiers in Nutrition we concluded that these foods “have health and environmental advantages over comparable animal-derived foods. For most individuals a daily serving of a PBMA fits well within the context of an overall healthy diet.”

An investigation by @AGtivist.agency revealed a dark reality in the EU, where mega-farms are growing while small to medium farms are disappearing.

This is in complete contradiction to the EU’s promise to move towards sustainable agricultural models.

Despite the evidence, regenerative meat continues to be positioned as a climate fix. But while the climate evidence is clearer, it’s worth saying that growing beef on regenerative farms doesn’t make it uniquely nutritious.
