Pass the lo-gas grass , Please.

Natural grass .. It's a gas gas gas..

Cows graze on a meadow in the Alps mountains near the village Oberau, southern Germany in August 2010. Climate change can be curbed by changing the diet of livestock, whose feed crops, farting, belching and manure contribute a fifth of the planet's greenhouse gas emissions, a new study said Friday.

I’m still chuckling from a caller on Rush’s show last week when Mark Stein was pinch-hosting. The caller said they call this “Dairy Air” ... love it.

Must be the reason for those early snows some areas of the alps have experienced two weeks back.

The reason for bringing up cows...

Need some way to cut methane, without half of the world’s population being cut off from the rice they need.

Methane is a gas, as a bottled or piped gas, it’s portable, industrial energy. Sigh, once again environmentalists fall behind the curve. Collect methane in bottles and compress it. Bottled methane = Bottled Energy

He estimated that at 20 dollars per ton -- the current rate of carbon on the European Climate Exchange -- poor livestock keepers in tropical countries could generate about 1.3 billion dollars each year in carbon revenues.

$0.4 billion in taxes and fees; $0.3 biillion in payoffs and bribes; $.5 billion to middlemen, marketers, and trade groups; $.2 billion in increased costs, loss of marketable manure, etc; net to the poor farmers -$0.1 billion

Cattle don’t fart...they belch, but don’t fart. Fact.
