They didn't mention that agriculture is responsable for 100% of the worlds food. I guess if people quit eating that would cut down on a lot of hot air.

A significant portion of these emissions come from methane, which, in terms of its contribution to global warming, is 23 times more powerful than carbon dioxide.

NASA weather satilites have recorded a cooling trend puting our world temps at the same temps from 1978. I live 4 miles from one of the greatest methane producers in the province. Its called the Big Grass Marsh. To bad humans keep blaming cows for there problems, Denile is such an evil mindset Laughing Laughing
