Our Planet
Industrial meat farming is detrimental to the environment, threatening human security, biodiversity and the ecosystem and producing harmful greenhouse gas emissions.
MTE’s technology promotes climate action and provides an environmental solution to accelerate the large-scale shift to meat alternatives - without sacrificing flavour, texture, and the planet.
Plant proteins generate 90% lower environmental impact because plants need less land, use less water, and create less pollution than livestock.
