That's just not right...who monitored the results? Who gathered the data?

Did you even read the article?

Methane emmisions are a source of greenhouse gasses and may prove to be a problem.

How do we know how much the problem is or how to solve it without research?

Making scientific pronouncements without research is JUNK SCIENCE.

Personally I would rather see money spent on reducing cow farts than dropping bombs on people.

It's actually a serious issue..
Big issue with sheep farmers, too.

I agree with you.

There are like 8 billion people on this earth.....and we all fart...we'll except some of the ladies...not ALL though.

There are other issues with sheep farmers that we wont get into here.

Apparently 19% of methane gas emissions comes from domestic animals, many of them cows/cattle.

After eggs for breakfast and baked beans the night before I'd probably account for 2 or 3 percent::11:

someone on another thread said something like this..
"if God didn't intend for man to eat animals he wouldn't have made 'em out of meat"

It's hilarious! I agree with it.
