Some ecoists say that the cows are damaging our atmosphere does anyone have any information on this scenario ?
Sorry Davy, I'm obviously not quite as experienced or knowledgeable as you. Are you suggesting we invent a contraption (or perhaps already have) to catch cow farts? :scratch: Or just stand behind them with a lighter when we want to warm our hands :lol: Apologies: my imagination works in cartoon pictures.
