Bill Gates-backed startup makes ‘butter’ out of water and carbon dioxide - eviltoast

A California-based startup called Savor has figured out a unique way to make a butter alternative that doesn’t involve livestock, plants, or even displacing land. Their butter is produced from synthetic fat made using carbon dioxide and hydrogen, and the best part is —- it tastes just like regular butter.

    Food and shelter are cheap. they don’t do this to feed and house themselves, they do this for greed.

    If they want to profit of it, make the plants and sell the goods. But keep the info open.

      Why assume you know their motivation?

      Seems likely to me if they offered their research for free they’d get crushed by some sociopath international corporation using it against them.
