California is taking its fight against global warming to the farm.
The nation's leading agricultural state is now targeting greenhouse gases produced by dairy cows and other livestock.
Despite strong opposition from farmers, Gov. Jerry Brown signed legislation in September that for the first time regulates heat-trapping gases from livestock operations and landfills.

Cattle and other farm animals are major sources of methane, a greenhouse gas many times more potent than carbon dioxide as a heat-trapping gas. Methane is released when they belch, pass gas and make manure.

With the Interstate Commerce Clause and the Wickard v filburn decision this should OVERTURNED IMMEDIATELY, In Fact I am surprised the FEDS didn’t RAID the STATE LEGISLATURE as a result of this Law.

Liberals are clinically-insane.
Every cow will now have to be fitted with a gas chromatograph and a solar-powered laptop to record the data.

I just don't see that a cow passing gas is that significant in the grand scheme of things.

We’re OK, we all live in deep caves in the hills along with the soon to be extinct mountain pika...
We’ll get by until this current crop of Neanderthals passes thru.. or until they raise the Mejican flag again over the Capitol.

So do I, but I’m not leaving the state.
This is too hot a property to abandon to the Leftists.
We need to develop a plan to wake people up.
The state is worth fighting for.

They just need to get rid of meats and fossil fuels for transportation.
Then we can all be on bicycles like old China. Except there will be no jobs for many.

They worry about cow manure and overlook the horse shit in Sacramento.

If you want to regulate "cow farts", then place a "consumption fee" (not tax) on every burger sold in California AND make the consumer sign an agreement acknowledging the wonderful benefits of this special "feel good" fee.
Let the consumer market decide how high the fee is...
The object is to discourage cow ownership in California.
