Where's Al Gore when we need him?

Researchers in Norway claim a grown moose can produce 2,100 kilos of methane a year, equivalent to the amount of CO2 caused by an 8,077-mile car trip, der Spiegel reported.

Norway’s national animal releases methane through burping and flatulence, as do cows, considered more harmful to the environment than carbon dioxide.

There are estimated to be more than 100,000 moose in Norway.

As I've written in several places, it's vegetarians who are causing global warming.

Vegetarians (two- or four-legged) emit carbon dioxide at one end and methane at the other. Worse, they consume nothing but plants, which take in carbon dioxide and emit pure, clean oxygen.

So vegetarians are a double threat to the environment.

My personal plan for saving the earth is to eat more animals - and try to eliminate blathering vegetarians, politicians, actors and all other hot air producers.

Sounds like a plan to me, Rocky! :p

Till I read the last line, I was afraid you'd suggest eating the tree huggers, Rocky! :p

You may all laugh, but consider the dinosaurs -- obviously, farted themselves into extinction! ;) :p :D :D

Some of my co-workers may be a bigger threat!

Yeah I was just thinking, I'm amazed that Greenpeace and the EPA aren't tracking down my father...

I "suspect" my wife to be a bigger threat?

Geez, what kind of forum have I joined? :p

A warped bunch of Gun toting, beer drinking (some of us), older guys that understand that the laws of nature and physics apply to all of us. Sorry Cheezy for your dilema! Way to much info. Hope you have a King sized bed and a fan.
:D Jim

I choose not to be offended at the older comment, just cause ya'll are old doesn't mean I am :) I can't disagree with the warped gun toting part though

Whoo boy, that "smalldeadanimals" site is a hoot! You all need to sit down with a cold one and read through those! :D

I think Al Gore is going to uncontrollably vibrate until he explodes trying to reconcile the benefit of shooting those gassy moose, vs his anti-hunting stance. Or, he will figure out a way to make a buck off of it. Yeah, that's what will happen. He's already figured out that angle.
