   Why do they hate bugs? Bugs have feelings too you know. All my cows eat grass, which means they are plant based nutrition for healthy minds and bodies.(C)

   Are you claiming the methane output isn’t what has been established, or that methane isn’t literally a greenhouse gas?

     Are you proclaiming you cannot understand English? Tony did not say bovines do not emit methane. Nor did he say it is not a “greenhouse gas”.

     What he says with irrefutable evidence, is there were natural herds of bovines as large or larger than our domestic bovine herds, well before the so called man- caused increase in CO2.

     So for those who are intellectually challenged, this means that our current population of bovine herds cannot be any different in effect than the natural herd population from hundreds of years ago. And furthermore Tony points out these bovine herd numbers were around during the “little ice age” and hence claims that these herds cause global warming are also false.

     You have an incorrect screen name – instead of “Real Skeptic” your name should be “Really Brainwashed”!

     CO2 concentration is roughly 415 ppm
     CH4 (methane) concentration is 1.8 ppm

     water vapor concentration (between 2,000 and 40,000 ppm) annual average at my location of 25 deg N latitude is 17,500 ppm.

     Both water vapor and methane are about 4 times more effective as CO2 at IR absorption. The IPCC reports their finding that CO2 provides 1.8 watts per square meter of “extra heating” (not a correct term, but let’s use their nomenclature).

     Therefore methane has only 1.8 ppm / 415 ppm * 4 times more powerful *1.8 w/m² = 0.031 watts per square meter of “extra heating”.

     Water vapor is then: 17500 ppm / 415 ppm * 4 times more powerful * 1.8 w/m² = 303.6 watts per square meter of “extra heating”.

     Are you going to propose or agree to completely destroy our civilization by banning fossil fuels, and ban meat eating etc, for a so called “problem” of this relative magnitude?

     Do you realize the master you are serving by swallowing this narrative? CO2 is the essence of LIFE on this planet. Plants convert it along with water to hydrocarbons which all animal life relies on. The animal life returns the CO2 to the atmo.

     Making CO2 into something bad, is to say LIFE is bad and must be eradicated! That is in fact serving an evil purpose! You think I jest – read the statements of the founders and promoters of this “Climate Change” bandwagon:

     section 8 of the above essay quotes as follows:

     “· “The common enemy of humanity is man. In searching for a new enemy to unite us, we came up with the idea that pollution, the threat of global warming, water shortages, famine and the like would fit the bill. All these dangers are caused by human intervention, and it is only through changed attitudes and behavior that they can be overcome. The real enemy then, is humanity itself.”
     – Club of Rome, premier environmental think-tank, consultants to the United Nations

     · “We need to get some broad based support, to capture the public’s imagination… So we have to offer up scary scenarios, make simplified, dramatic statements and make little mention of any doubts… Each of us has to decide what the right balance is between being effective and being honest.”
     – Prof. Stephen Schneider, Stanford Professor of Climatology, lead author of many IPCC reports

     · “Isn’t the only hope for the planet that the industrialized civilizations collapse? Isn’t it our responsibility to bring that about?”
     – Maurice Strong, founder of the UN Environment Programme

     · “The extinction of the human species may not only be inevitable but a good thing.”
     – Christopher Manes, Earth First!

     · “A massive campaign must be launched to de-develop the United States. De-development means bringing our economic system into line with the realities of ecology and the world resource situation.”
     – Paul Ehrlich, Professor of Population Studies

     · “One American burdens the earth much more than twenty Bangladeshes. This is a terrible thing to say. In order to stabilize world population, we must eliminate 350,000 people per day. It is a horrible thing to say, but it’s just as bad not to say it.”
     – Jacques Cousteau, UNESCO Courier

     · “No matter if the science of global warming is all phony… climate change provides the greatest opportunity to bring about justice and equality in the world.”
     – Christine Stewart, former Canadian Minister of the Environment

     · “I suspect that eradicating small pox was wrong. It played an important part in balancing ecosystems.”
     – John Davis, editor of Earth First! Journal

     · “We’ve got to ride this global warming issue. Even if the theory of global warming is wrong, we will be doing the right thing in terms of economic and environmental policy.”
     – Timothy Wirth, President of the UN Foundation

     · “The extinction of Homo Sapiens would mean survival or millions, if not billions, of Earth-dwelling species. Phasing out the human race will solve every problem on Earth – social and environmental.”
     – Ingrid Newkirk, former President of PETA

     · “The goal now is a socialist, redistributionist society, which is nature’s proper steward and society’s only hope.”
     – David Brower, first Executive Director of the Sierra Club, founder of Friends of the Earth”

     Bottom line is if you support this narrative against LIFE, you are serving an evil purpose to depopulate the earth!

       Regarding Ingrid Newkirk’s comment. Why doesn’t she just kill herself if she thinks humans are the problem. Be an example, maybe the like minded will follow and leave the rest of us alone. Besides, 65 million years ago a rather large rock fell out of the sky and killed the predominant species (dinosaurs) along with almost all other life but the Earth, as the Monty Python boys would say, got better. That event could happen again then it would be goodbye to PETA, Bill Gates, et al, and the rest of us. But, again, the planet would get better. When it comes to the Earth, think in tens of millions of years, not human lifetime.

       Well done, D. Boss. It would be no stretch of the imagination if one assumed that the gullible Fake Skeptic agrees with most, if not all, of those humanity-hating totalitarians’ quotes at the end.

       Twelve years on since my deprogramming first began – now it is hard to believe I was once firmly entrenched in that deluded sad sack’s camp.

   “By weight, no cattle do not produce the most methane. Insects do. […] Cockroaches, termites, centipedes and various arthropods all produce methane as noted in this study from 1994 “Methane production in terrestrial arthropods.” Roughly 200 to 300 hundred cockroaches emit as much methane as a head of cattle.”
