[QUOTE="Yale, post: 7988903, member: 19"] The prof is being selective in which bit he forgets to acknowledge. He simply is putting his head in the sand by classifying ruminant methane in the same way as that which spews from deep underground from an abandoned oil well. The cow ate grass which sequestered that carbon from the air,that same carbon adds to the methane which is a closed carbon cycle. That cycle lasts around 10-12 years (which even scientists don’t seem to be able to accurately quantify),so does not add to warming as it only replaces what is destroyed. Old prof misses the point that cattle numbers have dropped in the UK so actually the industry is mitigating emissions from dirty industries like aviation. [/QUOTE]
