Summary:
- Arla Foods, one of the largest dairy producers in the world, is adding a feed additive called Bovaer to its cows' diet to reduce their methane emissions by up to 30%.
- The additive has been approved for use in the EU and will be introduced in Tesco, Aldi, and Morrisons stores, allowing consumers to purchase dairy products from cows with reduced environmental impact.
- This move is part of the dairy industry's efforts to address climate change and reduce greenhouse gas emissions from livestock farming, a significant contributor to global warming.
