• Carbon dioxide

• Methane

• Nitrous oxide

How does Kebreab propose to reduce methane emissions from cows?

• By reducing the number of cows

• By adding seaweed to cow feed

• By using air filters in barns

• By changing cow breeds

What percentage reduction in methane emissions was observed in trials when seaweed was added to cow feed?

• Up to 50%

• Up to 67%

• Up to 80%

• Up to 98%

Explain why seaweed is considered a potential solution for reducing methane emissions from cows.

• It is a natural feed additive that reduces methane production during digestion.

• It increases the cows' appetite, leading to less methane production.

• It changes the color of the cows' milk, making it less appealing.

• It makes cows more active, reducing their methane emissions.

Discuss the potential impact of seaweed on meat quality and cattle weight gain as mentioned in the prompt.

• Seaweed negatively affects meat quality but improves weight gain.

• Seaweed has no effect on meat quality and weight gain.

• Seaweed improves meat quality and can enhance weight gain.

• Seaweed reduces both meat quality and weight gain.
