The Startup That Turns Methane Into Protein

In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore how one startup is turning methane—a potent greenhouse gas—into protein for animal feed and human food. They dive into the science of methanotrophs, the economics of gas fermentation, and the surprising carbon math that makes this a potential game-changer for both climate and agriculture. With a specific focus on a company called Calysta (based in the UK) and its partnership with Mitsubishi, they unpack the $60 million plant in Tennessee, the race to replace soy imports, and why the venture capital world is suddenly very interested in eating greenhouse gases. If you've ever wondered where your bacon's breakfast came from—or whether a burger can be part of the climate solution—this episode has answers. #Methane #Protein #Calysta #GasFermentation #Methanotrophs #SustainableAgriculture #AnimalFeed #CarbonCapture #ClimateTech #GreenhouseGas #Biotech #VentureCapital #FoodTech #AlternativeProtein #Decarbonization #Business #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
