Scientists determine that camel farts are not contributing to global warming

May 12, 2014

 Scientists have determined that cow and sheep farts are a contributing factor in global warming. I wish I was making this up but sadly I am not, however there is some good news, I suppose, on the animal farting front as scientists have now determined that camel farts are not destroying the environment.

  Here is more:

Environmental scientists have discovered one mammal that is not posing a threat to the planet by contributing to greenhouse gas emissions through flatulence – camels in Australia.

Entitled “Methane Emissions from Camelids,” referring to their biological family, the April 9 article ends speculation that camels are like cattle, sheep, and other animals that are said to be contributing to climate change through flatulence, or the passing of gas resulting from the food digestion process.

“Our results suggest that the methane emission of Australia’s feral camels corresponds only to 1 to 2% of the methane amount produced by the countries’ domestic ruminants and that calculations of greenhouse gas budgets of countries with large camelid populations based on equations developed for ruminants are generally overestimating the actual levels,” the abstract concludes.

“Therefore, when calculating GHG budgets, equations developed for ruminants are not applicable for the estimation of CH4 emissions from camelids,” the conclusion states.

  It should go without saying but it needs to be said; animal flatulence is a part of nature and the fact that scientists are now studying animal farts to prove that global warming exists shows us how desperate they are becoming in their attempt to prove their predetermined results.

  So what can we take from all of this? It just so happens that sheep and cows are abundant in the United States while camels are not, therefore American animal’s and by extension America, is responsible for global warming while other country’s  animals do not play a major role.

  The blame America first crowd must be smiling. Just for the record, this is sarcasm but it does highlight how absurd this whole thing is becoming.

    Much as been attribute to stock yards as well. Remember that one last year that went up – exploded. Some still thing that was a mission that hit it. ‘Whatever it takes’ to accomplish the agenda. I wonder how many ‘carbon footprints’ they totaled up doing this study + the millions of $$$. Notice no ‘studies’ are conducted on Gov. trips. http://enduringsense.com/2013/04/05/sequestration-carbon-footprint-and-air-force-one/

      Environmental terrorism, I had heard rumors as well and I do not doubt there are people out there capable of doing something like this.

    In the UK 1-2% would have been enough reason to cull the lot.

    I wonder how many tax dollars this brilliant study cost?

    Yes, and these folks that run the study are called sniffololgists. Their job includes running after camels, cows, kangaroos with a mason jars.
