Cow Burps Banished!

I've been away on a short break (only 40 miles from home, carbon counters), so just a quick look at recent news today:

With the news that the UK's greenhouse gas emissions rose 1.25% last year, German scientists claim that a new pill to reduce
cows' burping is the way forward. Bovine wind apparently accounts for 4% of greenhouse gas emissions... well I never.

More seriously, the Energy Savings Trust has issued a 'Green Barometer' on public attitudes to climate change which shows the gap between concern and action isn't closing fast. You can read my views on it here.
