Canadian researchers preparing a study on how to tax cow farts
The Western Standard online ^ | July 9, 2022 | Christopher Oldcorn

Canadian researchers want to study how much carbon is released into the air from cow burps and farts.

That study would open the door for the federal government to put a carbon tax on cow burps and farts like New Zealand implemented.

In an interview with the Western Standard, University of Alberta researcher Cameron Carlyle talked about a new study he's putting together to measure the carbon released into the air from cow belches and toots.

“I was just in a meeting … to discuss trying to put together a new project where we tackle that question because it’s an important one for the beef industry,” said Carlyle.

“And it’s an important one for conservation of grasslands … from the beef industry perspective. They're criticized for their greenhouse gas footprint, which is largely emissions from cattle. So, all their burping of methane out into the atmosphere.”

No folks, this story is NOT from the Babylon Bee! It is from a generally conservative news source, The Western Standard.

Apparently, Prime Mistake True-dolt and his band of fascist WEF sycophants, wish to follow in the footsteps of Comrade Leader Jacinda Ardern, Dear Leader of the NZSSR (New Zealand Soviet Socialist Republic).

Prime Mistake 'Little Potato' True-dolt absolutely LOATHES the Prairie Provinces, ESPECIALLY Alberta and rural BC! EVERY policy he brings in, is designed to hurt the Prairies Provinces. Oil and gas production is a MAJOR employer and source of income in AB, SK and Northern BC. Ranching is also THE major agricultural endeavor in Alberta and Northern BC, and forms a large part of Saskatchewan's agricultural economy.

FedGouvCan is also financing a 'cricket ranch' pilot project outside of d'Ottawa, to learn to 'farm' these critters, to wean Canadians off of meat and teach them to eat crickets. My heartfelt response to the Prime Mistake is 'TUCK FRUDEAU!' I will NOT eat insects!

Reality is, if there was an excise tax on the bravo sierra that exits out of the mouths of the little dictator, Justin Castreau, his Cabinet, and JagmeetAZZ Singh, Leader of the communist NDP, our national debt could be paid off in weeks!

God help Canaduh and ESPECIALLY, occupied Alberta!

Shouldn’t be too hard to figure out! Justin Trudeau has had his nose up a cows arse every day for these last 8 years.

As with everything these morons do, it’s not about “climate change;” it’s about money and control.

Very dangerous research.

A lot of liberals will die.

When a blade of grass is eaten by a cow, it’s digested by bacteria in the cow’s stomache and the carbon is released into the air.

When a blade of grass isn’t eaten it dies, and is digested by bacteria in the soil, and the carbon is released into the air.

It’s the same amount of carbon, either way.

Cow farts don’t emit much. Cow burps do far more.

But the issue is really collectivism, which is the systemic eradication of thought.

You make too much sense for a Lieberal mind, especially one like Justin Castreau’s, whose already limited gray matter has been further destroyed by decades of smoking pot. (Unlike BJ Klintoon’s claim of ‘never inhaling’, True-dolt has never made such a claim.)

Just a device to curb meat intake.

Too bad these enviro-freaks give zero attention to landfills.

Try the study in the Hispanic parts of Calif where refried beans are a staple.

They are followers of ‘der Führer und Reichskanzler’ K(louse) Schwab and his insane, fascistic ideas. His WEF sycophants are SO ABSOLUTELY INSANE and POQER HUNGRY!

Evil exists everywhere, tempting all, and trapping many unaware. Then there are people who take evil to the next level. Last century, Hitler, Stalin and Mao Tse-dung were head and shoulders above the rest. This century, Schwab and his evil minions rank above the rest! Castreau, Freeland and Singh are up there with him, in my mind.

I wonder what the carbon footprint would be to prepare tar and feathers to use on the federal government?

The people pushing this are probably releasing more gas into
the environment than cows are.

Several years ago I watched a documentary about a Canadian researcher who was studying the amount of methane humans put into the atmosphere every day.

I can't remember the title of the research, but this guy found that on the average an adult male blew about 3.3 liters of gas per day. And, the average female blew about 3 liters of gas per day.

So, I think that these imbeciles need to look to themselves before they start blaming the poor, innocent cows.

I thought that said “fax,” not “tax.”

I’ve heard of junk faxes, but that would be insane.
