New technology dramatically reduces greenhouse-gas emissions from livestock farming

The Norwegian company N2 Applied has found a way to zap cattle slurry with artificial lightning (a plasma torch powered by solar panels). The resulting chemical reactions with air reduce nitrous oxide emissions by ~90% and methane by ~99%. The nutrients remain in the slurry and can increase grass productivity by ~40%, reducing the need for nitrogen fertilizer. Air and water pollution, as well as unpleasant odours, are also significantly reduced:.

Thank you for reaching out and your positive feedback! The World needs more cheering and focus on climate solutions. We cannot solve all issues, but hopefully we can be a part of the solution on how to produce food with less emissions. Noticed a small misunderstanding in the text, - we reduce ammonia emissions (not nitrous oxide). You can also see this short animation to get a grasp of the technology: https://youtu.be/p8aJjH6VsfA
