Apparently, microbes may be essential to ensuring food security. A new study outlines how microbes can be used to manufacture high-quality protein to not only supplement our own diets but also reduce the need to grow crops for animal feed. The proposed production facilities are more efficient and require less resources; they produce food for the microbes using captured carbon dioxide and solar energy, making them suitable for a variety of conditions, like deserts and high altitudes.
