White House looks to regulate cow flatulence as part of climate agenda

 

 

"As part of its plan to reduce U.S. greenhouse gas emissions, the Obama administration is targeting the dairy industry to reduce methane emissions in their operations.

This comes despite falling methane emission levels across the economy since 1990.

The White House has proposed cutting methane emissions from the dairy industry by 25 percent by 2020. 

Some of these methane emissions come from cow flatulence, exhaling and belching — other livestock animals release methane as well."
