It was space travel that inspired scientist Lisa Dyson to create an unusual climate solution: protein made from air, which can be grown inside a tank instead of using up valuable land. Dyson is the founder of Air Protein, a California-based startup that is harnessing cutting-edge technology to create a meat alternative called Air Meat, using just microbes, water, renewable energy and elements found in the air.
“How do we make all that food without increasing greenhouse gases, and essentially overheating the planet more and more?” Air Protein has created “a new type of agriculture and a new way of growing food that doesn’t require arable land,” Dyson says. The company says it has not yet published the results of its lifecycle assessment, but claims it doesn’t add any emissions to the atmosphere.
I bet they taste like air too.
Make no mistake, this is a missed steak.
Meat out of thin air which tastes like shit. Quite an achievement...
This guy I know makes steaks out of the cattle in his pasture.
