Methane emissions from cows is going to
kill us per one George Dvorsky (if he
can over dramatize so can I).
He starts out with, “the new finding means it’s going to be even
tougher to combat climate change than we realized.” assuming we are all in accord with the notion we need to ‘fight’
climate change.
What he
doesn’t mention, while the USDA estimates the USA has about 98.4 million
cattle, in 1880 an estimated 60 million bison inhabited North America. Does
Gerogie not understand bison are one of about 12 species of bovine inhabiting
our Earth?
OK, some species may now be extinct. All bovines belch and fart
methane. One wonders just how many bovines exist today world wide (1.3 to 1.5
billion) as to how many before, say, 1900?
Methane is
an efficient “green house” gas that persists for around 16 years in our
atmosphere. Could it be that methane is a necessary component to keep our
atmosphere stable?
All these climate change fanatics use the planet Venus as their
justification. How sure are we that Venus’ atmosphere persists solely because
of ‘green house’ gasses? Venus lacks a
magnetosphere. Apples to oranges comparison?
Surely
pleasing to his PETA readers, he slips in, "suggests
we should cut back on our consumption of meat and dairy. The privilege we have
over these animals, it would appear, now comes at a hefty price".
Sadly, all this “settled” science’crap
obscures good science. Information that should be taken seriously gets ignored
IMO.
OK, one point to the PETA types. Cattle
are fed food to fatten them that causes such severe bloating that anti bloating
chemicals (Tums?) must be added to the feed. A fight for another day?

"Once all animals are eliminated, the plants will be happy." I've heard this.
My response to these people is that 'I'm a vegetarian too, but I eat vegetables because I hate plants'. They just look confused when I say it. They confuse easily.
So take three Tums and call the rancher in the morning??? Sigh...
Mean, just mean.
I know several ranchers. Quietly, over drinks, some have strong views on the way feedlots "finish" cattle.
We just need brick walls. Lots of them. For head banging.
Yes, but not our heads.
The best kind of leggings if you are tall and slim and complete plus they increase the look of long legs.
There's nothing wrong with one of these if you're able to locate them within your size - it is a great opportunity for
bargain hunters. Bras minimizer or otherwise, that fit properly are capable of doing wonders
for females with bigger breasts.
Dear Anon,
If you must spam comments like this, at least include salacious pictures.
Lol.
