What is that hot pink thing on that cow’s back? That is a fart tank, son! Scientists in Argentina have began collecting cow farts in an attempt to understand how they affect global warming. The researchers have found that the methane that comes from cow farts accounts for 30% of Argentina’s green house emissions.

Argentina has roughly 55 million cattle that produce somewhere between 8000 to 10,000 litres of ass gas every day. I wonder how many automobiles that is equivalent too? Scientists are hoping to find a way to alter the diet of the cows which will reduce their flatulance problem.
