“Estonian authorities have slapped a flatulence tax on farmers to compensate the country for the methane gas produced by cows. Farmers this week received their first ‘fart tax’ demands asking them to pay for the greenhouse gases their cattle produce. A single cow is thought to produce on average 350 litres of methane and 1,500 litres of carbon dioxide per day from flatulence and burping.” (05/09/08) Link: http://www.ananova.com/news/story/sm_2846457.html Filed under: LAND News and RRND News | Report Bad Link Bookmark this post in Furl or Del.icio.us | |
