In a recent newspaper article promoting the eating of seaweed and seaweed products, the argument was made that doing so was a more efficient use of energy than eating animals. Why would eating seaweed be more energy efficient than eating an animal?
◦ Plant matter contains more energy per unit volume than does animal matter.
◦ The energy found in animal matter represents a fraction of the energy found in the plant matter eaten by the animal. It would be better to just eat the plant and skip a step.
◦ The conversion of plant matter to animal matter produces less waste than converting animal material to animal material.
◦ Plant matter contains more energy per unit weight than does animal matter.
