THE ENVIRONMENTAL DANGERS OF METHANE

Recently greenhouse gases have been the subject of many pieces of legislation and company plans. Carbon Dioxide is the main enemy that is constantly being attacked, but methane is often overlooked as a possible issue. According to the American Society for Microbiology, methane emissions have 20 to 30 times the greenhouse gas trapping effect compared to CO2. More importantly, the main perpetrator of methane pollution is the beef industry. Ag-gag laws and other pieces of legislation not only keep the horrors and real effects of the industry from the public, but they don't do anything to stop the pollution that is being created.
