How do we lower emissions & save farmers money? 🧑‍🌾 By #engineering microbes in food additives for cattle, we’re giving farmers a solution that strikes the right balance between #sustainability, output, and environmental impact. number8.bio/the-science.ht…

There’s a myth that dairy & beef farming are completely unsustainable & should be phased out.👎 However, solutions exist that can mitigate their impact so they can continue alongside other sustainable food production methods.🐮 number8.bio/our-mission.ht…

Methane is a major climate opportunity.🫧 Livestock contributes when cows & other ruminants belch methane from their digestive system.🐄 Reducing this is crucial to slowing heating. That’s why we’re developing novel solutions to curb emissions. Learn more: number8.bio/our-mission.ht…

From carbon sequestration to reducing livestock #methane & powering biofuels, seaweed is powerful for climate action. But scaling production is tough so we’re using bioengineering & #PrecisionFermentation to harness its potential—unlocking benefits without scaling pitfalls. 🌿
