I believe Gallo was using cow matter for power generation but they have been rather silent about that lately.<BR/><BR/>Imagine if there was a way to capture the cow gas. That is something that will always be around as long as cows are around. Methane is the by product. I know that the process with separating the liquid from solid cow matter also can produce methane because you can boil the liquid and collect it. <BR/><BR/>I am wondering what the most efficacious way to collect these gross objects would be AND at a small enough AFFORDABLE scale.

Up = more bulls, Down = more steaks.<BR/><BR/>Mahndisa,<BR/>Somehow I just knew you were a steak gal. Next time you get down to the LA area we will have a barbeque at my place. <BR/><BR/>But no to Dysonsphere...

Ultimately, it would be nice if we could all use fission and solar energy. Dysonsphere anyone? hehehehMahndisa S.

I didn't realize when I read the recent article about cows that the cow "output" was greater than the total of all transportation sources. I may want my money back for the tickets to An Inconvenient Truth.<BR/><BR/>A potential answer to any significant global-warming effect from greenhouse gases: infuse the atmosphere with small reflecting particles to add more dimming effect--and thereafter do a balancing act between more gases and more particles. <BR/>warming....cooling ...warming .....<BR/><BR/>Or run the cow population up and down.<BR/><BR/>BurtAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
