I read once that 70% of the global warming gasses come from cows farting. So in my opinion we need to breed a geneticaly modified cow that dont fart. Perhaps we could breed a cow that gets "milked" for its farts so we can run our cars off it.
Lot of missinformation out there regarding a lot of things.
I work in the Agrochems industry and one of my pet hates is organic foods. Do you have any idea what "organic" farmers spread on their fields?
At least with our stuff we go through years of trials before a product becomes safe to sell.
An "organic" farmer (who dont want to loose crops to disease, pests or weeds any more than any other farmer) can spray stuff on his crops so long as its a naturally occuring chemical.
This means that "organic" produce can be sprayed with stuff like copper sulphate and still retain its title for which people pay a premium in the shops.
I know what I'd rather have.
