They look so innocent, but….
Cows, in their intestines, produce methane gas. Lots of it–enough gas to become a problem for global warming.
Scientists have developed a pill that helps cows break down that methane, using its energy to produce sugar. Cows get fatter–methane goes down–and the whole planet becomes a happier place.
What good news from science, that gives us all reason to smile!
