Cool Kangaroos Have Methane Message for Cows

When the solutions for global warming seem too terribly daunting, it’s good to consider the latest rays of hope: today, for instance, we find that kangaroo farts may hold the key to a coolerย future.

The Telegraph reports that a form of bacteria that lives in ‘roo tummies helps the digestion process so much that ‘roo flatus passes almost entirely without the powerful (and smelly) greenhouse gas,ย methane.

If this bacteria could be passed safely to cows and sheep, it would enrich the energy potential of their food while reducing a statistically significant contributor to global warming.
