- noaaclimateIt's #CowAppreciationDay! Cows are a big source of methane across the world. With a piece of tubing attached to a fishing pole (attached to a pump), a researcher attempts to capture the methane gas belched from a #cow in Zimbabwe.
The sample is part of researcher Euan Nisbet's efforts to catalog the carbon-13 isotope signatures of all different types of methane from tropical sources.

- vaporwavyAfter I started studying atmospheric science, I stopped eating beef. Crazy that the average cow produces more methane gas annually than a mid-sized car.
- vainmatt440Yep cows are destroying the planet lol
