Animals to blame for warming: car expert
Research manager for the Federal Bureau of Transport and Communications Economics, Dr Leo Dobes, said his re- search had shown that cars had not contributed a disproportionate amount to green- house gases.
“You could say the motor car is not much better or worse … and not the big problem that everyone thinks,” he said.
He said animal gases, such as methane and nitrous oxide, had a far greater global warming potential than carbon monoxide emissions from fossil-fueled vehicles.
Disrupting the Borg is expensive and time consuming!

The answer: Eat more squirrels…
“Imagine a half century has passed. It is the year 2060 and world beef consumption has fallen dramatically: a good outcome for climate-sake, according to some. However, life cycle fart assessments have led some to question the wisdom of the transition, as dairy production was shown to have increased greatly to meet growing vegetarian dietary needs, indirectly raising human methane and carbon dioxide contributions.”

Though I don’t necessarily accept the conclusions of Dobes et al (1995), I fully support a global war on the fluffy-tailed tree rats.
Dr Leo Dobes, said his re- search had shown that cars had not contributed a disproportionate amount to green- house gases.
In other words: “…cars had contributed a proportionate amount to green house gasses”
Er… yes, right….
Hope he is paid in proportion to his usefullness.
Abbot will teach him not to poke his head above the parapet. Good bye funding.
