They say, A single cow produces between 154 to 264 pounds of methane gas per year, . . . . . . . .

I heard a scientist dude on a TED Talk that mixed seaweed with cows' feed, and it cut methane emissions by over 80%. The food blend has been approved for sale in CA. This could be a real gamechanger. Now we need to get it into stores and let folks have the choice.

Fun fact: 98% of the methane a cow releases comes out of it's mouth. So the team of scientists built a machine that looks like a washing machine to test the cow's breath. A cow cookie drops inside and when they stick their head in for the cookie, the machine collects samples of their breath. There is always a line of cows waiting for their turn at what they see as the cookie machine.

In other cow related news, there is a cow dumping epidemic in one of India's biggest nature preserves. Farmers are allowed to use the milk from cows, but they can't kill them once they are to old to have calves. So they are dumping them in the nature preserve to keep from having to feed them. (India has the most cows in the world)

Make we wonder if we share a zip code. That is too funny.

When I worked IPM for a greenhouse in 2020. my boss handed those out in our Christmas gift bag. I gave them to my niece, I think it was the bacon and cheddar flavored ones. She took them to school and got in trouble daring other kids to eat them.

I had a good laugh when my sister called pissed off that I was the reason she had to go to the principal's office.

Locally there are some large farms with methane digester systems that scrub the air in the cattle barns for methane and put it into the natural gas supply line.

Crickets, by weight, contain 2 - 3 times as much protein than beef steak, with more fibre and vitamins. Cattle needs 21 times more land, 13 times more water and 8.5 times more food to create protein than crickets. Crickets protein has 10 times more B12 than salmon, twice as much calcium than milk and twice as much iron than spinach.

Perhaps some year there'll be a marketing board for crickets, grasshoppers and ants.
:D

Cant wait for a cricket burger.....

My Dad was a cheesemaker at one point in his life. We had eight cows and the whey was sent back to us in the large steel cans and fed to the pigs. These days whey is dehydrated and added to smoothies for a protein boost. I'd drink a cricket protein smoothie. I've eaten beaver, muskrat, racoon, alligator, etc - why not crickets!
I do love steak and burgers too.

I've gone to that area fishing and looking, but only found some lower quality stuff, or stuff embedded too much.
After looking at geology of how it forms, where and why, it's not easy to get to or find .

This material was mined in the 50s, cut in the 60s into freeform cabs, and recut again in 2023. The lapidarist is from South Paris, ME. I purchased it from a private collection. I'm very happy with it.
