Is this that thing where the ranchers feed their cows some percentage of died seaweed to cut down on the methane emissions?
Because that's a thing.
It's better for the climate than not doing that, but still not as good as, you know, actually looking at overall beef production with a critical eye and maybe cutting back a bit.
This video spills the secrets of how to make believable chicken (and beef) flavors from plant products. We've known how to do this since the 60s.
We could replace all ground meat with plant products and the only thing missing would be the texture, and companies are actively working on that.
Feed additives are not mentioned in the article, but it's also worth noting how greatly misleading the claims you see about those are
