We are decreasing agricultural methane emissions using one of the most scalable resources on our planet: algae.

Alga’s feed supplement makes cattle burp less and earns cash for cattle owners.

Less Methane

Our feed additive is inexpensive, safe for cattle, and can reduce their methane emissions by 97%

Methane is a short-term pollutant. It only stays in the atmosphere for about a decade1, but while it’s there, it is 104x more potent2 than CO2. By cutting methane emissions, we can slow warming.

Ruminants, mainly cattle, account for 27% of annual methane emissions in the USA.

With Alga’s supplement making up just 0.5% of the cattle’s diet, methane emission can be reduced by 97%. Alga’s solution is effective, cheap, and available.
Just one cow eating Alga’s feed additive can reduce methane output equivalent to a car driven 12,000 miles.
There are over 100m cows in the US alone.
