I hear "CO2-turned protein" and I imagine chicken nuggets conjured from car exhaust fumes

You see a car driving along and there's a little plop every few seconds when a new chicken nuggie falls out of the exhaust pipe.
If it can be fed to animals, it can be fed to humans.
And with the ability to remove plants from our diet, this technology will be the stepping stone that will lead us to pan-species communism - a society that respects all species equally, including plants.
Seems pretty disrespectful to the bacteria who make the proteins though.
seems ok but would be better to just not allow their population to adopt the incredibly destructive western meat-heavy diet en masse
still, they're doing more than any other country on earth at that scale to tackle climate collapse
Isn't all protein "CO2-turned"?
Sure, but this is specifically referring to using CO2 from industrial emissions as feed for bacteria that synthesize protein.
