Despite
what Donald Trump says, climate change is real, and it’s upon us.
One
species that stand culpable for the threat of our extinction, are the cows.
Or
more exclusively, their grassy bovine butts.
You
see, cows produce a lot of methane gas. Pungently scented, methane is also an
incredibly powerful greenhouse gas.
Methane
fumes are puffing in from the pastures at an accelerated rate- If we compare it
to carbon dioxide, which is chugged out by our four legged friends of the
metropolis (the cars), methane traps thirty times more heat in our atmosphere.
We
are being dutch-ovened by the livestock, and something needs to be done about
it.
That
is why one group of researchers from the California Dairy Research Programme
have been blessed with the task of studying cow gas,
and they’ve been given a quarter of a million dollars to do so.
It’s
a noble job, and perhaps the future of mankind depends on it.
Nevertheless,
the task of prevent a cow from passing wind
is somewhat problematic; there are too many cows, and they are tooting too
much.
Here’s
hoping that our California researchers can figure out some sort of cow-talytic
converter to save our furry friends.
Well, moo-ving on.
