This is getting out of hand. What's next? We're gonna name and shame individual cows?

@lemmeout @realitista what's next is the eco terrorist crowd wants people to eat bugs and dead bodies rather than cows...

...if cows weren't raised for milk and food what does these Ecoscammers expect - ok we won't eat them, but their farts blow holes in the ozone layer... so if we stop eating them are we just going to kill the cows so they stop producing methane? These Eco people want to kill more cows than a hungry truck driver. All livestock.

I'll stick to cows. (Sorry!)

Except they don't, because insects and corpses are animals too.

I get the point you're trying to make but it falls flat if you peek in on that part of the world once in a while.

@drwho well technically corpses are dead animals.... that don't burp and fart methane... I mean for a short while they do. This is the problem with trees too. If we think let's plant trees to absorb the carbon - when the tree dies the carbon is released into the environment.
