Making food production carbon-neutral with a green-blue algae superfood


In efforts to tackle the huge carbon footprint created by agricultural production, Jonas Guenther, Tandon alumni and NYU Future Lab graduate, founded We Are The New Farmers, a Brooklyn-based urban farming business using captured carbon to create sustainable food from microalgae. “Our goal is to unearth the potential microalgae has as a food source and anchor it deeper into our food system,” said Guenther.
