Animal-Based Protein (ABP) accounts to over 70% of California's Agricultural GHG emissions
Forage and feed production which are largely through conventional farming methods are damaging to the enviroment.
Forage and Feed production largely implements conventional methods of farming with intensive tillage
GMO utilization and intensive use of chemical inputs create a hazard for Eutrophication and animal/human health in consumption
Intensive use of antibiotics to support animal health creates superbugs that are unresponsive to antibiotics.
Ruminant livestock contribute to one of the most disruptive GHG gas: CH4 Methane
CH4 tops at the 2nd most impactful GHG which is 35 times more potent than Carbon Dioxide
CH4 Atmospheric retention is measured at around 10 years
The United States holds the 4th highest Methane polluter bringing in 499,809 kt (2012)
CH4 State livestock emissions from 2000-2017 has remained constant with no significant decrease since
Livestock management and production supports a huge industry such as Leather, Food, Feed, Equipment, etc.
Stakeholders within the industry would lose tremendous amount of money
Manure byproduct from livestock supports organic agriculture
The cost benefit of protein return to consumers remains highly expensive with a complex supply chain
Compared to Precision Fermentation (PF) ABP include the additional step of processing and distribution of product
ABP supports a very large industry composing of livestock equipment, livestock medication, restaurants, transportation, etc.
Consumer Dietary Preference
Consumers perception of highly processed food with health
Plant based diet is deficient in Omega-3 and Iron
Meat dairy consumption create social perception of elevated status
