Spirulina Protein Market Analysis

Over the past few years, people's awareness of environmental sustainability has increased significantly. Climate change has affected the earth's natural ecosystems and poses a significant threat to the present and future generations' well-being. Global population growth and urbanization are the primary causes of natural resource depletion, including water, fossil fuels, and land, contributing to global warming. Due to the rising global population, the demand for food is also increasing. People are heavily reliant on animal sources to meet their nutritional requirements. This factor exerts high pressure on the livestock industry. The livestock industry is one of the significant contributors to anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions. The livestock industry is one of the major contributors to anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions. According to the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), the worldwide livestock industry emits 7.1 giga tons of carbon dioxide annually, accounting for 14.5 percent of all human-caused greenhouse gas emissions. According to industry experts, livestock production emits more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere than the whole transportation industry combined. Consumers are rapidly switching to alternate protein sources due to the rising awareness regarding the negative impacts of the meat and livestock industry on the environment. Spirulina is a rich protein source and has many health benefits. Thus, the rising interest in alternative protein sources drives the spirulina protein market growth over the forecast period.
