    Take two balloons, fill one with Co2 the other with Methane.
    Throw them up into the air and they will fall back to earth very quickly.

    Yet we are told by 'experts', never seen so many as we have in the last ten months, that theses two gasses go up into the atmosphere to create a Green House effect causing Global Warming.

    For the last ten months or so the number of flights has been drastically reduced, as has the number of ships sailing, and the number of vehicles on the road is about the lowest ever.
    Yet the latest figures show that during this time Co2 levels went up by 0.1% ??

    But in the media at the weekend a solution to all our problems.

    We must cease the use of animal dung as fertilizer as it adds Methane to the ground, we must also cease the production and consumption of all meats.
    All mammals produce Co2 and Methane, but if we remove animals for consumption from the mix we can reduce the gasses by some 20%.

    We should then set out on a diet of fresh fruit, beans. lentils, green vegetables and sweet potato.

    This diet will however produce as much if not more Methane than meat, Beans in large quantities can be deadly.

    Just ask Cappy what happened to Mary's wooden leg.

    I can tell you, he fed her on a diet of baked beans and her leg got blown off.

    So think very carefully before becoming a Vegan, and if you do you may need your own bedroom away from the family.
    Happy daze John in Oz.

    Vegeterian meals need more meat, eg: Steak and salad rather than just salad,
    Vegan meals need similar: Steak and salad rather than just salad.

    Native American translation of vegetarian - "bad hunter"

    Native American translation of carnivore - "bad farmer"

    Q: How many vegans does it take to change a lightbulb?

    A: Twenty. One to actually change the bulb, and 19 to argue if lightbulbs are vegan.

    I tried a veggie diet some years ago after a bit of a glitch after my annual health review. Didn't Last too long - after a while everything began to taste like boiled knitting.

    Not having eaten any boiled knitting you have me at a disadvantage there.
