S&EP - Constructing explanations and designing solutions

The main factor behind making products like this is to create a much more efficient and environmentally safe product. The magic behind the milk is using the strain of yeast that is produced in the USA Agricultural Department and 3D printing a sequence of cow DNA. They then insert the DNA it into a specific area of the yeast. This allows milk proteins to be formed, and with the help of some other products, the milk is prepared. This lowers the land consumption by 91%, the water consumption by 98%, the energy consumption by 65% and greenhouse gas emissions by 84%. This definitely designed a solution that works for everyone, and is much more Eco-friendly.
