This is just absurd!
New law sounds full of hot air (From The Sun, UK)
April 28, 2007
BARMY Euro MPs are demanding new laws to stop cows and sheep PARPING.
Their call came after the UN said livestock emissions were a bigger threat to the planet than transport.
The MEPs have asked the European Commission to ??look again at the livestock question in direct connection with global warming?.
The official EU declaration demands changes to animals?? diets, to capture gas emissions and recycle manure.
They warned: ??The livestock sector presents the greatest threat to the planet.? The proposal will be looked at by the 27 member states.
The UN says livestock farming generates 18 per cent of greenhouse gases while transport accounts for 14 per cent.
