Not just cows 🐄 Methane has a much bigger story to tell. From fossil fuel leaks and landfills to livestock and wetlands, methane is released all over the world and it packs a serious climate punch. It’s the second-largest contributor to global warming after carbon dioxide, and molecule for molecule, it traps around 30 times more heat over a century. The good news? Methane doesn’t linger for long. With an atmospheric lifetime of about 10 years, cutting methane emissions can lead to faster climat

Methane can build up in a cow's guts due to bacteria, which is responsible for turning grass into useful energy. 🐄 🌱 It's necessary to release the gas before further accumulation. You can stick a needle-like trocar into the cow's rumen to release the methane. But I'm not sure why it was necessary to light the methane gas 🤔 Was it to show that there is methane? Or to light it before it gets released into the surroundings? If you're a vet or have any idea, please shed some light ✨️ #physics #sc
