SOMEBODY CHECK MY MATH

According to this study
http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/1990JGR….95.3619K
termites contribute 8.8 billion tons of CO2 to the atmosphere every year, and that is just one component of the many natural contributors, which make human C02 emissions a tiny fraction of the total.

Other sources are …

other insects, like ants
rotting vegitation and animal carcasses
animal respiration other than cows
volcanoes
forest fires (shame on you, California!)
etc.,

And to top it off, the contribution of CO2 to greenhouse gases is only a fraction of that of water vapor!
http://www.geocraft.com/WVFossils/greenhouse_data.html
And as if that isn’t bad enough, the contribution of CO2 to the greenhouse effect decreases dramatically with increased CO2. I.e., the more you add, the less the increase in effect. So, twice as much causes much less than twice the effect.

Bottom line, leave Bossy alone you sadistic Leftist perverts!

(It’s not more than all the others, Harry, but it IS a pretty sizable amount.)

Termites are estimated to generate about 4×10E15 g CO2/yr. There are .0022046 pounds per gram, and 1000 pounds per ton. [(4x10E15)*(0.0022046)]/1000 = 8.8x10E10

Many years ago, before the Glowball Warmenating hoax, some bright types did the same kind of study on termites and found that they produce more methane than all other sources put together.

This is plausible because the tropics have trillions and trillions termites, all eating and farting non-stop in the rain forests and savannahs.

Thought you’d want to know.

Isn’t this a Code Pink cow?

This isn’t a study of any kind.

It’s the Democrat controlled Congresses answer to the energy crisis.

As soon as they figure out how to carry the cow in the car’s trunk, we’ll be good to go.

Looks like photo caption contest material to me.

Also, note those plants all around the cow. If they really are the same, it’s Jimson Weed, a potent hallucinogen, not to mention toxin. If bossy eats them, gas is the least of her worries.

Just ask “the Cheshire Cow, in “Alex in Dairyland” if you don’t believe me.

cows fart through their mouths-not the other end

OMG! Is this *true*, Scott? Someone call PETA! Note in the picture that tube leading to the air tank on it’s back is certainly *not* connected to the mouth….. Poor little thing must be very uncomfortable… not to mention, quite the “Far Side” moment has he mentally blasts the idiot who connect the dang thing!

feeding cows clover and alfalfa

Cows are fed grain rather than clover and alfalfa because you get more fat, faster, by feeding them that way. If you feed them clover and alfalfa you have to account for the fact that you’ll either have them around longer or else have more cows in order to get the same amount of meat.

Is this a new study? If so it was a waste of money, because those numbers are 15 years-old or so as there was already a study in the U.S. Of course methane burns. India has invented a simple cow patty stoves (which gives a new reason why they don’t want to kill their cows) which is said to be 4 times more efficient than the common stove used in the U.S.

Just wait till India invents an effecent way to harvest cow gas. There is already methane harvesting at land fills.
