The Various Flavors of 'Activists' are going to HATE this
.........................................................................................................................................................................
Carbon...it's in the air
Hydrogen....it's in the water
Oxygen....BONUS...it's in the air and the water BOTH
Nitrogen...It's in the water.
it's everywhere..it's everywhere..
CHON is a mnemonic acronym for the four most common elements in living organisms
of course there are other stuff required too.
Phosphorous for example...and sulfur...and a whole handful of trace elements.
But they're there...they're common...and that means they're dirt cheap.
Since they're mostly in the dirt..that kinda makes sense.
Where am I going here?
Well listen up.
In previous episodes we discussed cellular agriculture which included synthetic meat and vertical farming in which VERY much LESS land ( and resources) would be used to do it all.
CHON is a step farther out.
It would replace the middle man in a manner of speaking.
FOOD FROM AIR, plus some trace elements. In China the air is so polluted the trace elements are in the air already.
It's not happening YET. Significant research and improvements in the technology has yet to be done.
But Plants prove it to be possible. They've been doing it for millions of years.
