Kangaroo Farts Could Ease Global Warming. (No, not Kidding)....

Kangaroos

More Goracle inspired global warming hysterics.  Ten years from now we'll look back on all this and get a good laugh, for now just sit back and enjoy the show.....

Kangaroo Farts Could Ease Global Warming (actual headline)

AUSTRALIAN scientists are trying to give kangaroo-style stomachs to cattle and sheep in a bid to cut the emission of greenhouse gases blamed for global warming, researchers say.

Thanks to special bacteria in their stomachs, kangaroo flatulence contains no methane and scientists want to transfer that bacteria to cattle and sheep who emit large quantities of the harmful gas.

While the usual image of greenhouse gas pollution is a billowing smokestack pushing out carbon dioxide, livestock passing wind contribute a surprisingly high percentage of total emissions in some countries.

Another group of scientists, meanwhile, has suggested Australians should farm fewer cattle and sheep and just eat more kangaroos.

"Another group of scientists, meanwhile, has suggested Australians should farm fewer cattle and sheep and just eat more kangaroos."

This would make a lot of ecological sense--global warming or no global warming. In fact, the major objection I have to opponents of global warming is that most things suggested to solve global warming just make sense even if global warming is utter rubbish. Admittedly, I'm sure there are fools out that who suggest dumb ideas, but would even those dumb ideas compare in stupidity to some of the ideas suggested by the Cato Institute. Dirty jet fuel to block solar radiation? And I'm sorry I don't know if this one is easily checked by internet, but I did encounter two young interns from the Cato Institute, and I can vouch for their sincerity and authenticity, with an idea that they said was discussed at Cato. The idea was to paint Canada white with the white stuff in tooth paste. Ignoring the property rights issues, what happens if Canada were to get dusty?

"What's up, Skippy?"

"Mooooo!"

Gotta git me some o' that. Ole Snoops' been very, very gassy lately.

And when I say "very, very gassy", I mean EXTREME, EXTREME flatulance.
