Yeah, elephants are great. Until they hot-wire your car and drive off with it.

We can expect this level of BS to continue as long as government grant money flows. Only turning off the money spigot will stop the flow of effluent so offensive to our intelligence.

“Can Elephants Save the Planet?”
No. If greenies really want to make a “carbon” difference...
1. Kill ALL termites. (forget about “cow” farts)
2. Ban ALL carbonated soft drinks. (Beer is exempt)
No sarc tag because those 2 things would reduce carbon in the atmosphere by a YUGE amount, yet they want us to all hold our breath (involuntarily if necessary).

The left hand of Science clearly ain’t talking to the other left hand. But . . .
Follow the science.
Right.
The medical community and science are going the way of journalism.

The best thing an elephant could do is to stomp the author of this article into a pile of goo.
The earth does not need to be “saved”.

Elephants would save the world if there weren’t so many donkeys around.

What a marvelous and joyful coincidence that a majorly well-loved and endangered (and profitable) species suddenly hold one of the keys to saving the Earff.

Elephants good, cows bad?

To help the planet, built more nuclear power plants, which produce energy by converting long-lived radionuclides to shorter-lived radionucldes.

By this articles logic, cows are the perfect animals as they don’t eat trees at all and eat only low density plains(grass)
Save the planet, eat more beef,!!

“...stop the flow of effluent so offensive to our intelligence.”
Bravo! But the real stupidity, like you said, is someone had to pay for this study with a government grant that used taxpayer money. And why not just give the elephants body guards to shoot the ivory poachers? Sure save on hiring more forest rangers.

You know, I worked in the fruit industry, here in WA State. The company I worked for was rather small at just 2,000 acres of fruit trees. With an average of 500 trees per acre, that's 1,000,000 million trees.
This was just one orchard company. There are others that are much bigger.
Based on that, each orchard is a carbon sink because these trees absorb tons of carbon each and every day during the growing season.

They accelerate 'climate change' by feeding humans who as you know are toxic to the environment.
