What if there were a way to cheaply produce protiens that, when added to rehydration solutions given to dehydrated children in Africa significantly reduced (by more than 20%) the duration of the diarrhea that "is the number-two infectious killer of children under the age of five (surpassed only by respiratory diseases), accounting for two million deaths a year. "
What if this cheap manufacturing was also eco-friendly, in that its primary components were CO2, water, and solar power?
Cheaply reproducing naturally occuring protiens (also found in breat milk, saliva, and tears) in an environmentally-friendly way to save children in deeper poverty than most of us can imagine is a good thing, right?
Not everyone thinks so.
