Cows, deer and goats on farms create a lot of gas. A lot of the world's methane is from farm animals. Methane is the second most common greenhouse gas. Bill Gates wants to help reduce it. He put money into a new technology company called Rumin8. It made a seaweed-based food. This will cut the methane in animal burps.
