Good. Now, do termites. Their farts emit more ‘ghg’ than all human autos and trucks combined.

“That’s 12 megatons of biomass—more than all the wild birds and mammals taken together.”
Hm. Humans add up to what? Maybe 400 megatons? And to maintain that weight, there must be lots of megatons of domesticated animals, far more than wild ones.

But six researchers have come up with the latest—and most comprehensive—estimate of the number of ants in the world: 20 quadrillion.Which, coincidentally enough, is the same number of tax dollars that was spent on the research. Give or take a quadrillion.
