ieatcrayonz Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 I have seen several articles in the past partially blaming cows for global warming. The articles mention that cows produce methane. This can only be with thier farts right? I have a couple of questions about this. Is it only cows or is it all mammals? If it is all mammals, why do cows take such a beating? Is the press out to get them? Is this why they are sometimes mad? If it is only cows, why would we not just kill all of them? It's not like they're hard to catch. Can I change my diet to help save the planet? Can cows? On the other hand, could we change our diets to speed it up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dib Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 All mammals produce methane as a gaseous by-product of digestion. You can do your part by lighting your flatus and combusting the methane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the remedy, I don't think I'll be lighting any of my body parts on fire to save the world. I don't know where my flatus is, but it sounds painful. Can you say biting off your nose to spite your face? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But never the less I try and eat plenty of cows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dib Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 . I don't know where my flatus is, but it sounds painful. It's not a where it's a what. A flatus, to put it bluntly, is a fart. i.e. Flatulence, breaking wind, cutting the cheese, barking spider, cutting the cheese. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it did then why not just install a mini blow torch near every cows butt? It would keep them warm in winter and solve global warming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That squirrel is one of the funniest cartoon characters in years. Hmmm, how many squirrels would it take to equal the methane output of a cow? I now have a new reason to shoot squirrels.

ieatcrayonz Posted March 29, 2006 Author Share Posted March 29, 2006 The watered down version you're drinking. 645397[/snapback] Please Coach and Keg don't make this political. I would like to keep to the serious topic of cows and their farts. I have now learned that it is all mammals and feel bad for cows. This is not a political argument. Democrats and Republicans need to discuss if we as people should exterminate all mammals from the planet so that it remains safe for insects, plants, humans, reptiles, birds, snakes, dogs, cats, and amphibians. It would not be a pretty thing to do, but it may be necessary. In the short term, it could help refrigeration companies which will help the economy.
