Decarbonizing the Livestock Industry, 1 Burp at a Time: Methane-Reducing Cow Supplements

We've been told to go vegetarian to help the climate, but what if we can reduce meat-related emissions without sacrificing our palates? In this episode, we learn about two cow feed supplements that inhibit methane, how they came to be, and how they are changing the role of agriculture in fighting climate change. Walk with us through the entire lifecycle of two impactful climate innovations, from problem discovery, to solution, to real-world product in farmers’ hands. This episode was produced by Allison John and Rachel Wu with support from Laura Joyce Davis and the Stanford Storytelling Project's course "Stories to Save Our Planet."
