Not a repost: Kangaroo farts not as green as once thought

Kangaroos can no longer feel smug about their flatulence. Traditionally, it's been thought that the animals produce unusually low amounts of methane when they pass gas. Since livestock farts (I'm looking at you, cows) make up a lot of our global greenhouse gas emissions, that would make kangaroos potential lifesavers in the global warming department. Scientists had hoped that there might be some secret cocktail of microbes in their gut that made their emissions so delicate — perhaps one that could be given to cattle to make their farts less harmful.

You couldn't make this shit up...[facepalm]

Maybe the EPA will require ranchers to fit their cows with cowtalytic converters...

I was assuming that the most greenhouse gases were caused by liberals running their mouths....which typically smell worse than a cows fart.
