Fun fact, there is already a food additive to reduce methane emissions from cows
Thanks for sharing! I agree with your main point about overall emissions not changing too much since most of that reduction comes from feedlots already.
One small addition: the product that I originally linked is based on 3-nitrooxypropanol, a petrochemical-derived active ingredient, not from red algae (so there is probably a different calculation about production cost and CO2 impact than growing, processing and transporting red algae on a large scale).
