Cow Flatulence: The Silent But Deadly Source Of Greenhouse Gases

The Los Angeles Times is reporting this as serious news. It sounds more like something you would see in the Weekly World News.

It’s a silent but deadly source of greenhouse gases that contributes more to global warming than the entire world transportation sector, yet politicians almost never discuss it, and environmental lobbyists and other green activist groups seem unaware of its existence.

That may be because it’s tough to take cow flatulence seriously. But livestock emissions are no joke.
