By burping, belching and excreting copious amounts of methane — a greenhouse gas that traps 20 times more heat than carbon dioxide — India's livestock of roughly 485 million (including sheep and goats) contribute more to global warming than the vehicles they obstruct. With new research suggesting that emission of methane by Indian livestock is higher than previously estimated, scientists are furiously working at designing diets to help bovines and other ruminants eat better, stay more energetic and secrete lesser amounts of the offensive gas.

India's Cows Contributing to Global Warming?
It's been a while since we've posted about Mr. Barky's favorite subject....Cows With Gas! This time, in India!

The horrible thing about the "sacred" cows in India too... is that eventually they wind up in a very cruel death march to the slaughterhouses...

And the processing of "leather" in India is an ecological nightmare as well. It's all pretty horrible.
Solution for global warming (global heat sink)
Dear Sir
I am very much interested in saving over environment.
I am working on it from last 4 to 5 years.
Luckily I found one solution for global warming.
I designed equipment (global heat sink) which can solve this problem to some extent.
It is simple and effective.
The cost of making it is also very low.
I will be glad to discuss regarding it.
I need your help in implementing this project.
I request you to share my ideas with the respected people who are working on it
Hope we can find a good solution for this problem of global warming.
