Feeding over 8 billion people is the greatest accomplishment of our species. But it comes at the cost of 9.7 billion tonnes of greenhouse gases. How can Simcenter be used to engineer a low-carbon future to feed the planet in a sustainable way?
If you ate just a single hamburger a day for a whole year, the meat alone would amount to about a tonne of greenhouse gas emissions, which is about 20% of what be allowed for a "5 tonne sustainable lifestyle".
Ingredients | Carbon footprint |
|---|---|
Bun (40g) | 47g CO<sub>2</sub>e |
Salad (20g) | 28g CO<sub>2</sub>e |
Cheese (20g) | 270g CO<sub>2</sub>e |
Beef (108g) | 2840g CO<sub>2</sub>e |
Condiments (40g) | 50g CO<sub>2</sub>e |
87% of the greenhouse gas emissions from the burger comes from the beef. Find out how simulation is helping to design the cruelty-free, low-carbon, lab-grown burger of the future.
Transportation today is safer, faster, and covers more distance than ever before, thanks to mechanization made possible by fossil fuels and the industrial revolution.
