Abstract
4–15% of the 2.5 bn ha of semi-arid land globally could generate 59 PW h year−1of electricity without reducing food production, enough to make a major difference to global GHG emissions. The key is anaerobic digestion of a class of understudied, under-developed and hyper-water-efficient plants that use the crassulacean acid metabolism.
