"But the study also poses questions, such as how such a potentially large source of methane could have been overlooked and how plants produced it.
"There will be a lively scramble among researchers for the answers to these and other questions," Lowe added."
The scramble will be how to get the funding to prove somehow that we have casued the plants to do this as a response to something humans have done. /sarc

We must have a war on all plants, now!
Burn them all before they get us!
There is no stopping until we have complete eradication!

Or more specifically, what Bush and the greedy Big Oil Republicans have done. It seems the only healthy planet is a barren plant.

Whether it's by cow farts or now plant farts, Beano is the cure for global warming.

But they have done it to themselves. By insisting on saving trees and planting more and more "green space" areas,the treee huggers are contributing mightily to "global warming".
The irony is delicious.

EXCELLENTE!!!!! This means I can till my yard under and pave it with green macadam so I don't have to mow anymore.
YIPPEE!!!
Of course, this could also be a hoax perpetrated by nature on the enviro-wacko Chicken Littles, too. Seems no matter what they do, they just can't find enough ways to circumvent . . . . . . . NATURE!!!!!

Ronald Reagan was right, trees do cause pollution. Also, in another study recently it came out that trees absorb heat and cause more global warming.

I am going to make my wife throw out all those house plants she has been growing for years.

SO, in otherwords, Deforestation will combat Global Warming. Let the paving begin!!!

Obviously, there are too many trees. Mankind has overplanted and the obsession with "greenery" is causing global warming. Vegetarians are destroying our planet!

The quickest way to end Global Warming is to pave the Amazon.

Somebody new to blame. The Plant Conspiracy.
The "Global Warming" Industry needs defunding. Send the money to feed, clothe and shelter children and actually do something productive.
