Here's Your Bi-Weekly 'Cow Farts Cause Climate Change' Column
 I never get sick of stupidity like this...[CNBC] - Methane is a major contributor to global heating, and cows produce a lot of it. There may, however, be a way to reduce all that gas: seaweed. On a research farm at the University of New Hampshire, scientists are feeding cows seaweed in an attempt to reduce the amount of methane they produce. "We observed a reduction in methane up to 20%," said Andre Brito, associate professor of dairy cattle nutrition and management at UNH. "And 20% is a start. We are exploring different types of seaweeds, and the goal is to use locally produced seaweeds." I'm sure farmers in Iowa are gonna have plenty of seaweed lying around, right?
