Irish Scientists Aim to Knock Wind Out of Greenhouse Effect
"...their next goal will be to reduce levels of methane emission. Which should be quite a simple thing to do, actually. Apart from cutting out the onion soup and baked beans, they simply need to ensure that the cattle and sheep avoid curry, three-alarm (or stronger) chilli, and pints of Guinness. Well, it works for me."
