LONDON - Eating less meat could help slow global warming by reducing the number of livestock and thereby decreasing the amount of methane flatulence from the animals, scientists said on Thursday.

In a special energy and health series of the medical journal The Lancet, experts said people should eat fewer steaks and hamburgers. Reducing global red meat consumption by 10 percent, they said, would cut the gases emitted by cows, sheep and goats that contribute to global warming.

Sounds like a bunch of bull s***

If they really cared about the earth they would spend their research trying to find us other planets to colonize instead of dictating how often a sheep should fart.

Once the whole "man made global warming" thing became a debate.... it pretty much ended... they got nothing.

About the only country that is really still buying the whole scam is england... and look what they have been reduced to? talking about a 10% reduction in cow farts...

The man made global warming thing came in like a lion but went out like a cow fart...

I'm doing my part to quickly kill and eat as many of these ugly "Methane" producers as possible.

wouldn't eating less meat mean there are more living animals thereby being counter productive?

what it boils down to is that if you are married to the whole greenhouse gas myth then you have to see the elephants in the room... water vapor and methane.... man can't cause water vapor (95%+ of greenhouse gas) and co2 is becoming a non event (man made or otherwise) sooo....

You are stuck with methane if you are one of the man made global warming acolytes... man can affect methane sooo... lets run that one up the old flagpole and see how many sheep salute.

Eat more free range chicken! They are overrunning the forests of South America and devastating the ecology.

eating less meat = more cows living = more cow farts = more methane = more global warming

It's the vegetarians fault !!!
